Answer:
$0.06 per square inch
Step-by-step explanation:
The question should be:
<em>"If tile costs $8.50 per square foot, how much does it cost per square inch?"</em>
<em />
To solve this, we basically need a conversion from feet to inches. BUT 2 times, since we are talking about "square feet" and "square inches".
We know 1 feet = 12 inches
Also, since we are going from square feet to square inches [big to small], we have to divide TWICE.
Thus, we will have:
We are dividing 8.5 (the cost) by 12, 2 times since we want square feet in square inches. The answer is:
So, tile costs $0.06 per square inch
Answer:
Trapezoid 1 (left side):
Base 1 = 2
Base 2 = 5
Trapezoid 2 (right side):
Base 1 = 6
Base 2 = 8
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>1st trapezoid:</u>
b_1 = x
b_2 = x + 3
h = 4
Hence, area (from formula) would be:
<u>2nd trapezoid:</u>
b_1 = 3x
b_2 = 4x
h = 2
Putting into formula, we get:
Let's equate both equations for area and find x first:
We can plug in 2 into x and find length of each base of each trapezoid.
Trapezoid 1 (left side):
Base 1 = x = 2
Base 2 = x + 3 = 2 + 3 = 5
Trapezoid 2 (right side):
Base 1 = 3x = 3(2) = 6
Base 2 = 4x = 4(2) = 8
