Alright, so let's make the length x and the width y. 2y=x, and xy=area. 2x+2y=perimeter. Plugging 2y=x into the perimeter equation, we get that 3x=perimeter=126, and x=126/3=42
Length=42ft, width=21ft
Answer:
middle
Step-by-step explanation:
Hi there! The third option shows us the best setup.
We can find the area of a triangle with the standard formula area = 1/2 * base * height.
To be able to fill in this formula, we need to have a base and a height. We can't easily find a triangle with given base and height, so we must look for another option.
We can also take the area of a square (length × width) and then divide the answer by 2. This is possible when we take the third setup. Hence the third answer is correct.
This is the formula you would use to calculate how many tiles you would need.
# of tiles you need = Total square footage ÷ square footage of each tile
Total square footage: 69x69 = 4761 square feet
Square footage of each tile = 2x2 = 4 square feet
# of tiles you need = 4761 ÷ 4 = 1190.25
You will need 1190.25 tiles.
