Answer:

To cover a square ballroom 171 packages of tiles are required.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

1 package = 24 tiles.

Size of tile = 1 foot

Tiles are in square shape.

Hence Area of Tile = side^2 =1^2 = 1 ft^2

Also Given:

Side of the ballroom = 64 feet.

Ballroom floor is in square shape.

Hence we will find the Area of ballroom.

Area of ballroom = side^2

Are of ballroom = 64^2= 4096

Now we will find the Number of tiles required to cover ballroom.

Number of tiles required is equal to Area of ballroom divided by Area of Tile.

Framing in equation form we get;

Number of tiles required = \frac{4096}{1} =4096

Now Given that

1 package contains  = 24 tiles

Number of packages required  = 4096 tiles

By using Unitary method we get;

Number of packages required  = \frac{4096}{24} = 170.67 \approx171

Hence To cover a square ballroom 171 packages of tiles are required.

Consider the sequence of steps to solve the equation 3(x-4)+5x=9x-36
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Simplification of the given expression gives value of x = 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the given expression is  3(x-4)+5x=9x-36

Now, by DISTRIBUTIVE PROPERTY:

A ( B - C )  =  AB  -  AC

Simplifying the given expression step by step ,we get:

3(x-4)+5 x = 9 x - 36  ⇒     3(x) - 3(4) + 5x = 9x - 36

or, 3x - 12 + 5x = 9x - 36

⇒ 8x - 9x = -36 + 12

or, - x  = - 24

⇒ x  = 24

Hence, the the simplification of the  given expression, the value of x = 24.
