Answer:

180 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the rectangular drawing has:

  • 5 inches long (L)
  • 4 inches wide (W)

And we also know that:

<em>1 inch = 3 feet</em>

We will find how many feet long and wide is the actual room, by multiplying:

Long: 5 inches * 3 feet/inch = 15 feet

Wide: 4 inches * 3 feet/ inch = 12 feet

Now we want to know the area of the rectangle, and the area of the rectangle is:

<em>A = L*W</em>

<em>A = 15 feet * 12 feet</em>

A = 180 square feet

Answer:

  (d)  2 11/12

Step-by-step explanation:

  \dfrac{2}{3}-\dfrac{5}{4}+\dfrac{7}{2}=\dfrac{2}{3}+\left(\dfrac{14}{4}-\dfrac{5}{4}\right)=\dfrac{8}{12}+\dfrac{27}{12}=\dfrac{35}{12}=\boxed{2\dfrac{11}{12}}

Heron’s formula: Area 
Whitepunk [10]

Triangle is attached below

The triangle is 12 by 10 by 8

Perimeter:

To find perimeter we add all the sides of the triangle

Perimeter P = 12 + 10 + 8 = 30 units

Semi perimeter:

Semi perimeter is half of its perimeter

We know P = 30

Semi perimeter s= \frac{p}{2} = \frac{30}{2} = 15 units

Area:

If we know the sides of the triangle then we use Heron's formula to find the area of the triangle

A = \sqrt{s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)}

Where s= semi perimeter

a,b,c are the sides of the triangle

s= 15 units

a= 12 units

b= 10 units

c= 8 units

A = \sqrt{15(15-12)(15-10)(15-8)}

A= \sqrt{15(3)(5)(7)}

A= \sqrt{15 * 105}

A= \sqrt{1575}

A= 39.7 square units
