Complete Question

Kerrie is tiling the floor of a kitchen. The kitchen floor measures 11.3 feet by 9.25 feet. She orders enough tiles for 99 square feet. Which statement about the amount of tiles is correct?

a) Kerrie estimated correctly by rounding down. She has enough tile. The exact area is 104.5 square feet.

b) Kerrie estimated correctly by rounding up. She has enough tile. The exact area is 104.5 square feet.

c) Kerrie did not estimate correctly by rounding up. She does not have enough tile. The exact area is 104.5 square feet.

d) Kerrie did not estimate correctly by rounding down. She does not have enough tile. The exact area is 104.5 square feet.

Answer:

a) Kerrie estimated correctly by rounding down. She has enough tile. The exact area is 104.5 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics we have what is defined as rounding up and rounding down.

Rounding up of numbers is when the number you want to round up is followed by number from 5 to 9(5, 6, 7, 8, 9)

E.g. 2.5 rounded up to the nearest whole number = 3

Rounding down of numbers is when the number you want to round up is followed by number from 1 to 4(1, 2, 3, 4)

E.g. 2.4 rounded down = 2

We are told in the question

Kerrie is tiling the floor of a kitchen. The kitchen floor measures 11.3 feet by 9.25 feet. She orders enough tiles for 99 square feet.

Kitchen floor is rectangular = Area = Length × Width

= 11.3 × 9.25 feet

= 104.525 square feet

We are told that Kerrie ordered for 99 square tiles.

But looking at the decimal, the number after the decimal are between 1 and 4.

Hence, she would be rounding down.

If Kerrie rounds down to the nearest whole number

11.3 feet = 11 feet

9.25 feet = 9 feet

Finding the area = 11 feet × 9 feet

= 99 square feet

Therefore, the correct statement = option a) Kerrie estimated correctly by rounding down. She has enough tile. The exact area is 104.5 square feet.

Charlie is standing 45 feet from the base of 100 foot tall tree. What is the angle of elevation from him to the kite stuck on to
galben [10]
Hey. Let me help you on this one.

In order for us to solve this problem easier, let's break it apart. We can also graph the triangle so we get visual of this problem.

I drew a quick graph for you to easier understand this question. As you can see, Charlie is standing below the tree 45 feet from it, and we need to find the unknown angle measure.

Let's form a SOHCAHTOA function which you have probably already learned in your Geometry course.

First of all let's identify our sides. The side opposite of the right triangle is a Hypotenuse, and the side that's 45 feet is adjacent, since it's adjacent to the unknown angle.

We know that we need to use Cos (Cosine) with negative power to it in order to solve this question, since we are looking for the unknown angle measure.

Let's form the function which Cos, Hypotenuse, and Adjacent side.

Cos^{-1} =45/100

Now, let's solve the left part of this function


Cos^{-1} =0.45

Awesome. You will need to use your calculator for this part. Find the value of 0.45 when negative Cosine is used on it.

Cos^{-1} =0.45
63.25631605

Awesome. Let's round this number to the closest tenth

63.3 is the rounded value we have discussed below.

Answer: 63.3 degrees is the unknown measure of the angle

Solve the equation when x=12 1/3<br> Please show your work <br> 7x+8(x+1/4)=3(6x-9)-8
alina1380 [7]
7(12  1/3) + 8(12 1/3 + 1/4) = 3(6(12 1/3) - 9) - 8

12 1/3 = 12.33
1/4 = 0.25

7(12.33) + 8(12.33 + 0.25) = 3(6(12.33) - 9) - 8
86.31 + 8(12.58) = 3(73.98 - 9) - 8
86.31 + 100.64 =  3(64.98) - 8
186.95 = 186.94 - 8
186.95 ≠ 178.94

False. The x, when 12 1/3 does not work inside this equation

hope this helps

Which expression shows the prime factorization of 36?
Svetradugi [14.3K]
36....we need to break this down...12 * 3 = 36
12 * 3....we can break this down because 12 is not prime...4 * 3 = 12
4 * 3 * 3...we can break the 4 down because it is not prime
2 * 2 * 3 * 3 <==== prime factorization
