Answer:

A reality check quickly reveals that even if "eats" were spelled properly, the statement would still be nonsense.

Step-by-step explanation:

(40,000 pounds / 80 years) = (4,000 pounds / 8 years) = 500 pounds per year

500 pounds of bread per year = an average of a little more than 1-1/3 pound of bread per day, every day of a person's life.  My reality meter says that this is a bit much, especially in the USA.

Ken wants to install a row of ceramic tiles on a wall that is 21 3/8 inches wide. Each tile is 4 1/2 inches wide. What fraction
pentagon [3]

Answer: 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

He needs 4 3/4 whole tiles, you could round it to 5 whole tiles. He needed 4 3/4 whole tiles. To completely fill in all the spaces on the wall evenly, it needs to be 5 even, while, tiles. To fill in the empty space, you must subtract 5 and 4 3/4, which explains why Part A says “How many whole tiles does he need” and the answer “4 3/4” So, Subtraction: 5- 4 3/4 = 1/4!

Find the area of a circle circumscribing an equilateral triangle of side 15cm.<br> Take pi = 3.14.
miskamm [114]

Answer:

236 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of an equilateral triangle (h) = √3 /2 (l)

l = side of the equilateral triangle.

h = √3 /2 (15)

In an equilateral triangle the orthocenter, centroid, circumcenter and incenter are in the same spot

The center of the circle is the centroid and height match  with the median. The radius of the circumcircle is equal to two thirds the height.

Formula for the Radius of the circumcircle = 2/3 h

= 2/3 x √3 /2 (15)

= 5 √3 cm     (=radius)

Area of the circle = πr^

= 3.14 x( 5 √3 ) ^

=3.14 x(25*3)

=3.14 x 75

=235.5

=236 cm²
