The floor of the school art closet is being tiled. The closet is shaped like a parallelogram. The parallelogram has a base of 17
1 answer:
Answer:
21 packages
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to identify the area of the parallelogram. Given that:
- The base of 17.5 feet
- The height of 6 feet
=> S = bh = 17.5 x 6 = 105 ft²
Area covered by 1 package of tile = 5 ft²
So the number of packages of tile will be needed to tile the art closet floor:
The area of the parallelogram / Area covered by 1 package of tile
= 21 packages

When you are multiplying an exponent directly into a number/variable with an exponent, you multiply the exponents together.
For example:
When you are multiplying a variable with an exponent by another variable with an exponent, you add the exponents together.
For example:
You multiply 3 into each exponent in the numerator and the denominator
When you have a negative exponent, you move it to the other side of the fraction to make the exponent positive.
When you have something like this:
You subtract the exponents together, so:
