2. You would use liters for a bathtub.
3.You would use milliliters for a medicine capsule.
Answer: x= ±(√30) / 5
Step by step:
Yes. Changing the the word problem into a function, you get 30x=y.
30 = Fixed Length
x = width
y = area
No matter what width (x) you choose, the area (y) is going to be a multiple of 30 (the fixed length) because with two numbers being multiplied, if there is a fixed number that will always be the multiple and not the multiplier. For example, 10 multiplied by every number 1-10 is going to be a multiple of 10.
10x1=10, 10x2=20, 10x3=30, etc
So if Tom chooses any of these widths (x) 5, 10, or 15, y (the area) will be a multiple of 30.
30(5)=150
30(10)=300
30(15)=450
So as we double 5 to get 10, our outcome is doubled 150 to 300 and so forth. Hope this helps.
