The formula for perimeter is length + length + width + width

You know that all the sides of a square are equal to each other. That means that all the values in the perimeter formula should be the same. Therefore you can divide 72 by 4 (perimeter divided by the number of sides)

72 / 4 = 18

^^^Each side is 18 in

The formula for are is...

A = length x width

so...

18 * 18 = 324

324 in^2

Hope this helped!

zimovet [89]

Answer:

option (c)5 and $\frac{\textup{1}}{\textup{4}}$ cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Weight of Chaz = 79.2 pounds

Daily energy intake requirement = 1,840 kcal

Energy present in different brand food = 3,523 kcal/kg

Therefore,

the amount of food required = $\frac{\textup{Daily energy intake requirement}}{\textup{Energy present in different brand food}}$

the amount of food required = $\frac{\textup{1,840}}{\textup{3,523}}$

the amount of food required = 0.52228 kg

also,

1 kg = 1000 grams

therefore,

the amount of food required = 0.52228 × 1000 = 522.28 grams

now,

A cup of food weighs 100 grams

hence,

the number of cups required = $\frac{\textup{the amount of food required }}{\textup{Amount of food per cup}}$

the number of cups required = $\frac{\textup{522.28}}{\textup{100}}$

the number of cups required = 5.2228 ≈ 5 and $\frac{\textup{1}}{\textup{4}}$ cups

Hence, the correct answer is option (c)
