Answer:
<em>The area of Marlien's living room is 420 square ft</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
Before calculating the real dimensions of Marlien's living room, we must find the value of x.
Given the total shape of the house is a rectangle, then both widths must be equal and both lengths must be equal.
The widths are already written width identical expressions x-2+x, but the lengths are given as different functions of x. Equating both expressions, we have:
Simplifying:
-10 + x - 2 = 2
x = 10 + 2 + 2
x = 14
Since x=14 feet, the dimensions of Marlien's living room are
width=x=14 feet
length=2x+2=30 feet
Thus the area is:
A = 14*30 = 420 square ft
The area of Marlien's living room is 420 square ft
Answer:
In order from least to greatest: 0.25, 3 ⅜, 3 <span>⅖</span>;
Or, write as: 0.25 < 3 ⅜ < 3 ⅖ .
___________________________________
Explanation:
0.25 = ¼ l (less than "1"); the lowest of the three given values.
The remaining two values have the same whole number of 3, and a fraction:
3 <span>⅖ ;</span> and 3 ⅜.
The least common multiples among the denominators of the fraction values is 40. ⅖ = ?/40 ; 5*? =40? 5* 8 = 40, so 2*8 = 16;
Thus, ⅖ = 16/40, and 3 ⅖ = 3 16/40. 3/8 = ?/40? 8*5 =40; so 3*5 = 15 ; thus ⅜ = 15/40; and
and 3 ⅜ = 3 15/40.
3 15/40 is less than than 3 16/40;
as such; 3 ⅜ is less than 3 ⅖.
So, in order from least to greatest: 0.25, 3 ⅜, 3 ⅖;
Or, write as: 0.25 < 3 ⅜ < 3 ⅖ .
