Answer:
2 trees
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the city is planting a tree every 20 feet across Dayton Avenue, then we need to find the length of the side that is on Dayton Avenue.
We are missing 3 sides to this. But it's extremely important to note that the side adjacent to Dayton Avenue is the same length as the other missing two sides combined. This is because both of these lengths contain the 1 feather and 2 feather mark - these signify congruence.
This means that the side lengths of both of them combined will be
This means the side adjacent to Dayton Avenue is
feet long.
Now that we know that the side is 57 feet long, we have to divide this by 20, as a tree is being placed every 20 feet. If we get a decimal, we will have to round down because it gets planted only, and only if, 20 more feet has been accomplished. If we are a fraction of the way there, a tree doesn't get planted.
Rounding down gets us 2.
Hope this helped!

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
There is a specific order in which these dimensions exist.
Perimeter-->Area-->Volume
Perimeter is one-to-one,
Area is the one-to-one squared, and
Volume is the one-to-one cubed.
We are given area and the volume of one of the objects. In order to find the volume of the other object, we first need to determine the one-to-one ratio and then take it from there. If the areas exist in a
ratio, to find the one-to-one, we have to take the square roots of those numbers. That gives us a one-to-one of
The ratio of the volumes now is that one-to-one cubed:
Using that ratio along with the given volume we can solve for the unknown volume:
and cross multiply:
8x = 7128 so
x = 891
