The area formula is b x h, but since its a square the area would be side squared.

here side squared = 225 ft

Square root of 225 is 15, so each side of the rug measures 15 feet

The local newspaper has letters to the editor from 70 people. If this number represents 5% of all of the newspaper's readers, h

Answer:

This shows us that there are 1400 readers.

Step-by-step explanation:

To work this out you would first need to find how many times 5% goes into 100%, You can do this by dividing 100 by 5, this gives you 20. This is because the whole amount is equivalent to 100%.

To work out the total number of readers you would multiply 70 by 20, this gives you 1400. This is because we know that 70 is equivalent to 5% and that 5% goes into 100% 20. So by multiplying 70 by 20 we are working out the total (100%), and that this shows us there are 1400 readers.

1) Divide 100 by 5.

$100/5=20$

2) Multiply 70 by 20.

$70*20=1400$

Solve the inequality(s)<br> 2c > 2 <br> d/6 ≥ 1 <br> r + 9 ≤ 23

tatiyna

Divide both sides by 2 for the first one.
2c/2>2/2
c>1
simplify both sides for the second 1
1/6d>=1
6*(1/6d).=(6)*(1)
d>=6
For the last one
subtract 9 from both sides
r+9-9<=23-9 so that r<=14

According to the histogram of travel times to work from the US 2000 census (Page 6 of "Journey to Work: 2000"), roughly what per

Histograms are used to represent data, where the length of each bar represents the frequency of the data element

The histogram is not given; So, I will give a general explanation.

Assume that the number of commuters that travel more than 45 minutes is 450, while the total number of commuters surveyed is 500.

The percentage of commuters that travel more than 45 minutes is the quotient of the commuters that travel more than 45 minutes and the total number of surveyed commuters.

So, we have:

$\%Percentage = \frac{450}{500}$

Divide 450 by 500

$\%Percentage = 0.9$

Express as percentage

$\%Percentage = 90\%$

Hence, the percentage of commuters that travel more than 45 minutes is 90%
