The actual answer would be $16.5625 but you can just say $16.5
This question is worded badly, so don't be alarmed.
Obviously if this were a square patter the number of red tiles could only be 1,4,9,16,25,36 etc and this is not the numbers given...It would help tremendously if they gave you another reference point so as to know how the tiles were being laid out.
If they are laid out alongside one another with a consistent border for each you wouldn't need 12 blue tiles for each red tile either...if two were laid side by side you would only need 20 blue tiles to have the border around both...you see how the arrangement makes a huge difference and you are given no details as to what that arrangement is...
So just to keep it simple, assume that each red tile is surrounded by 12 blue tiles....
Total tiles equals r+12r=13r
t=13r so
t(15)=195, t(20)=260, t(25)=325, t(30)=390
Hi there! 3 feet = 1 yard, 12 inches = 1 foot and 36 inches = 1 yard. All we have to do is change them up into different units by doing a bit of multiplication, division, maybe mental math, and even proportions if you know how to do them. Regardless on what you do, if you do it correctly, here are what your answers should be for each unit.
Inches
Carol: 42 inches
Tino: 30 inches
Baxter: 54 inches
Feet:
Carol: 3.5 feet
Tino: 2.5 feet
Baxter: 4.5 feet
Yards:
Carol: 1 1/6 yards
Tino: 5/6 yards
Baxter: 1 1/2 yards
<u>Answer</u>
B(18/5,0)
<u>Explanation</u>
First we find the coordinates of C;
C (x, y) = [(-3+7)/2, (2+6)/2]
= (2, 4)
Find the equation of CD.
slope = (6-2)/(7--3)
= 4/10 = 2/5
slope of CD = -5/2
-5/2 = (y - 4)/(x - 2)
-5/2(x - 2) = y - 4
(-5/2) x + 5 = y - 4
y = (-5/2)x + 9
For the x-intercept y = 0
∴ y = (-5/2)x + 9
0 = (-5/2)x + 9
5/2 x = 9
x = 2/5 × 9
= 18/5
x-intercept = (18/5, 0)
