Answer:

(a)i. Area=72 square feet

ii. Perimeter =34 feet

(b) Baseboard - perimeter

Carpet - area

Step-by-step explanation:

The room is 9ft x 8ft, therefore it is rectangular shaped.

Length=9ft; Breadth=8ft

(a)i. Area of a Rectangle= Length X Breadth

Area of the room=8X9=72 square feet

ii. Perimeter of a Rectangle=2(Length+Breadth)

Perimeter of the room=2(8+9)=2 X 17 =34 feet

(b) A baseboard goes around the edge or boundary of the room, so it has to do with perimeter

A carpet covers the entire floor so it has to do with the area of the room.

Dominic runs a farm stand that sells peaches and grapes. Yesterday Dominic sold 34 pounds of peaches and 45 pounds of grapes for
scoray [572]

Answer:

34x + 45y = 192.25

47x + 16y = 208

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x stand for peaches.

Let y stand for grapes.

Since we know that yesterday he sold 35 pounds of peaches ( x ) and 45 pounds of grapes ( y ) for $192.25, we can create an equation to represent this using two variables; peaches and grapes.

We can do the same thing with the amount of peaches and grapes he sold today. Once we make this equation, we will have two equations to make the system of equations to solve for x and y.

Jerry’s rhombus has a base of 15 inches and a height of 9 inches. Charlene’s rhombus has a base and a height that are 13 the bas
neonofarm [45]

Answer:  The area of Charlene's rhombus is nine times smaller than the area of Jerry's rhombus.

Step-by-step explanation:

I will assume that the exercise says "\frac{1}{3} times the base and height of Jerry’s rhombus".

The area of a rhombus can be calculated with the following formula:

A=b*a

Where "b" is the length of the base  and "a" is the altitude or the height.

Then, you can calculate the area using the formula shown above.

Therefore, you get:

1. Jerry's rhombus:

A_1=(15\ in)(9\ in)\\\\A_1=135\ in^2

2. Charlene's rhombus:

A_2=(\frac{1}{3}*15\ in)(\frac{1}{3}*9\ in)\\\\A_2=(5\ in)(3\ in)\\\\A_2=15\ in^2

Dividing the area calculated, you get:

\frac{135\ in^2}{15\ in^2}=9

Therefore, you can conclude that the area of Charlene's rhombus is nine times smaller than the area of Jerry's rhombus.
