The formula for the area of a square is the side squared, or multiplied together.
Basically, if the side length is x, the area is x*x or x^2.
We can use that to set up an equation.
x^2=121
x=square root of 121=11
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The true statements are A and D
Step-by-step explanation:
4 (3(3) + 4) is 52, while 16(3) + 12 is 60
that would not be equivalent in w = 3 but it would in w = 1
Answer:
1. 4
2. 9
3. <
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio 4 to 5 means that the left model should have 4 segments shaded (out of 5 given).
The ratio 9 to 10 means that the right model should have 9 segments shaded (out of 10 given).
Compare the shaded regions. If you draw the horizontal line in the left model. then there will be 8 segments shaded (out of 10), this means the ratio 4 : 5 is less than the ratio 9 : 10.
You can solve this one by adding their rates, but you have to invert the numbers they give you to find the rate. Rate is measured in something per unit of time, and "per" indicates division. So the rates are: 1/3 of an hour (Sally) and 1/6 of an hour (Steve). So add the rates: 1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2. (1/3 is 2/6, and 2/6 + 1/6 = 3/6). Since their combined rate is 1/2 of a room in one hour, it takes them two hours to paint the room.
This answer makes sense: It takes Sally three hours by herself; with Steve's help, she's faster, but not THAT much faster, because he's pretty slow. You can often spot-check word problem answers like this by giving it a common sense once-over. If we came up with four hours, that would clearly be wrong: it should take her LONGER if she's getting help.
