In the above word problem, If she chooses the 8-inch tiles, she will need a quarter as many tiles as she would with 2-inch tiles, Quarter 8-inch tiles will cover the same area as one 2-inches.
<h3>What is the justification for the above?</h3>
Note that the area of the one 2-inch tiles is given as:
A1 = 4in²
The area of the quarter 8-inch tiles is:
A2 = 1/4 x 8 x 8
A2 = 16inch²
Divide both areas
A2/A1= 16/4
= 4
This implies she'll need four 2-inch tiles to cover the same amount of space as a quarter 8-inch tile.

Answer:
360 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>Given</h3>
- Area = 57600 ft²
- Length = x
- Width = 4/9x
<h3>Solution</h3>
- A = lw
- x*4/9x = 57600
- 4/9x²= 57600
- x² = 57600*9/4
- x² = 129600
- x = √129600
- x = 360 ft
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
A pentagon has 5 sides. Given that it is a regular pentagon, these 5 sides are equal.
The perimeter is the total length of all the sides of the pentagon. Since these 5 sides are all equal, we can divide the perimeter by 5 to obtain the length of a side of the pentagon.
Perimeter= 10x +15
Length of each side
= (10x +15) ÷5
= 2x +3
