Answer:

461 tiles (Approx) vinyl tiles are used in kichen tile .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Area of a rectangle = Length × Breadth

As given

A tile  kitchen measuring 20 ft. by 16 ft.

Here Length = 20 ft

Breadth = 16 ft

Put in the formula

Area of a kitchen tile = 20 × 16

                                  = 320 ft²

As 1foot = 12 inches

Thus

Convert 320 ft² into inches² .

320 ft² = 320 × 12 × 12 inches²

            = 46080 inches²

As given

The number of vinyl tiles, measuring 10 in.

Area of a square = a²

Where a is the side of a square .

Thus

Area of a vinyl tiles = 10 × 10

                       = 100 inches²

Let us assume that the number of vinyl tiles be x.

Than

x ×  Area of a vinyl tiles = Area of a kitchen tile

Put in the formula

x × 100 = 46080

x = \frac{46080}{100}

x = 460.8 tiles

x = 461 (Approx) tiles

Therefore  461 tiles (Approx) vinyl tiles are used in kichen tile .

(20*16 ft^2)(144 in^2/ft^2)(tiles/(10*10 in^2)

320ft^2(144in^2/ft^2)(tiles/100in^2)=460.8 tiles

However tiles are quantized integer units so 461 tiles will be needed to tile the kitchen.

At the grocery store, Lindsay bought several pounds of strawberries. The strawberries cost $2.25 per pound. After she paid the c
yanalaym [24]
Let x equal the number of strawberries while y is the total amount of money she had.

The equation is: 2.25(x)+8.75=y.

Then, if she bought 4 pounds of strawberries, it would work as follows: 2.25(4)+8.75 is the total amount. That means 9+8.75 would be the total. Thus, the amount of money she started out with was 17.75 dollars.

Answer:

y =-3000x +12000

Step-by-step explanation:

answer is

1)   12000 is the constant therefore when the number of hours is 0 the tickets are 12000

2)  the number of tickets (y) are reducing by 3000 for each hour(x). thus the coefficient of variable x should be -3000  (negative because it is reducing)

Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

54minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time taken to clean up be t

Let the number of people cleaning be n

If the time it takes to clean up after an anniversary party varies inversely as the number of people cleaning then;

t = k/n

k is the constant of proportionality

If 3 people work together to clean, and took them 90 minutes, this means

at t = 90, n=3

Substitute

90 = k/3

k = 3×90

k = 270

To et the time it will take 5people to clean, the will say;

t =k/n

t =270/5

t = 54 minutes

Hence it will take 5 people 54minues to clean

Scrat [10]

Answer: No. The two frames does not have the same ratio of white shells to orange shells.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ryan glued 9 white shells and 15 orange shells to the border of his frame. This will give us a fraction of:

9/15 = 3/5

The ratio is 3:5

Russell glued 8 white shells and 10 orange shells to the border of his frame. This will give us a fraction of:

= 8/10 = 4/5

The ratio will be 4:5.

Therefore, the two frames does not have the same ratio of white shells to orange shells.
