Answer: 16 small squares

why?
since this is a square mosaic, all four sides have equal numbers of glass squares
if you think about one glass square as one unit, the scenario can be considered through the equation 256=x^{2} -- where x is the number of glass squares per side ( remember, area of square = x^{2} )
so, to solve the equation, you find the square root of 256, which is 16!

~hope it makes sense~

To do this, you got to square 256.

The square root of 256 is 16.

Therefore, there are 16 small squares on each edge of the mosaic.

Kinda proof:

25 squares. Square root is 5. 5 along each edge. My work shares same concept.

Extremely unnecessary proof:

There are 256 squares, and you can count 16 on each edge. this shows 16 times 16, or 16 squared, which is 256.

The easiest way is to graph it based upon the slope (m) and y-intercept (b), in the standard slope-intercept form: y = m (x) + b.
The line above intercepts the y-axis at y = -2, which is b. The slope (m) = rise/run = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1 ); so for the point (-4, 2) to (-6, 4) is:
(4-2)/(-6--4) = 2/(-6+4) = 2/-2 = -1.
So one form of the equation would be:
y = -1x - 2
Now the other form of an equation is point-slope: y-k = m (x-h), where the point is at (h, k)
and if we pick -5 for x (bc 5 it listed in 3 of the answers), the y at x=-5 looks like around +3
so we get: y-k = -1 (x--5)...
y-3 = -(x+5)... therefore D) is the correct answer:

Answer:

V = 2143.57 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the volume of the sphere

V = 4/3 pi r^3 where r is the radius and pi = 3.14

V = 4/3 ( 3.14) ( 8)^3

V = 2143.57333 cm^3

Rounding to the nearest hundredth

V = 2143.57 cm^3

Answer:

p>\frac{1}{14}

Step-by-step explanation:

Question: -31p+79>-59p+81

1) Subtract 79 from both sides:

-31p>-59p+2

2) Add 59p to both sides:

28p>2

3) Divide both sides by 28:

p>\frac{2}{28}

4) Simplify fraction:

p>\frac{1}{14}
