Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's set the ratio as
7x : 9x
If you add all the states that border an ocean and do not, you will get 48 states (because Alaska and Hawaii are not part of the continental US, as they do not touch the "main" part of the country)
So, we can write this equation.
7x + 9x = 48
Simplify.
16x = 48
Divide both sides by 16.
x = 4
Now, find how many states border an ocean. In our ratio, the number of states that border an ocean was 7x. Substitute x = 4 into 7x
7 * x = 7 * 4 = 28
The number of states that border an ocean is 28.

Answer:
616 square centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a circle is equal to pi × r^2. In this case, they have asked that you substitute 3.14 or 22/7 for pi, so I will be using 22/7, instead.
Diameter is equal to 2r; to find the radius, simply divide 28 by two. This gives us a radius of 14.
Multiply 14 squared by 22/7:
(22/7)(14^2)
This gives us (22/7)(196); (4312/7); 616.
Therefore, the area of the circle is approximately 616 square centimeters.

Answer:
29.5 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's divide the shape into 3 parts to make it easy for us to find the area.
- a wide triangle
- a triangle
- a shorter rectangle
For the wider rectangle, the area is;
A1 = 8 × 2 = 16 in²
For the triangle, the area is;
A2 = ½(7 - 2) × 3
A2 = 7.5 in²
For the shorter rectangle, the area is;
A3 = 3 × 2
A3 = 6 in²
Total area = A1 + A2 + A3 = 16 + 7.5 + 6 = 29.5 square inches
