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:

o  o  o  o  O
o  o  o  o  O

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

Extremely unnecessary proof:

o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O

o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O
o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O
o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O
o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O
o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   o   O

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

What is-3/7x-2 in standard form
Eddi Din [679]
If you are given y = (-3/7)x - 2 and you want it in the form Ax+By = C, then...

y = (-3/7)x-2
7*y = 7*( (-3/7)x-2) ... multiply both sides by 7
7y = -3x-14 ... distribute and multiply
7y+3x = -3x-14+3x ... add 3x to both sides
3x+7y = -14

The standard form equation is 3x+7y = -14
