Answer:

The countertop is 8.37 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

L ----> the length of the countertop

W ----> the width of the countertop

we know that

The area of rectangle (countertop) is equal to

$A=LW$

we have

$L=18\ ft\\W=5\ ft$

Remember that

$1\ ft=0.305\ m$

To convert feet to meters multiply by 0.305

$L=18\ ft=18(0.305)=5.49\ m$

$W=5\ ft=5(0.305)=1.525\ m$

<em>Find the area in square meters</em>

$A=(5.49)(1.525)$

$A=8.37\ m^2$

Answer:

Area of the countertop = 8.37meter²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Length of countertop = 18 feet

Breath of countertop = 5 feet

To find the area of the countertop in square meters, we will have to convert the length of the countertop and breath of the countertop from feet to meters.

Given that: 1 foot = 0.305 meter

Therefore

Length of countertop = (18 x 0.305) meter = 5.49 meter

Breath of countertop = (5 x 0.305) meter = 1.525 meter.

So, Area of the countertop = length x breath

Area of the countertop = 5.49 x 1.525

= 8.37225 meter²

Area of the countertop = 8.37meter²

The Reunion Tower is one of the most recognizable landmarks in Dallas, Texas due to the giant sphere that sits atop the structur

ValentinkaMS [17]

The volume of a sphere uses the following formula:

$V = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^{3}$

Because the question asks to use 3.14 in place of pi, the formula will now look like this:

$V = (\frac{4}{3})(3.14)r^{3} = 4.18\overline{66} r^{3}$

We are given a diameter of 118 feet. The radius is half of the diameter, so divide the diameter by 2 to find the radius:

$118 \div 2 = 59$
$r = 59$

Plug this value into the formula, and solve with a calculator:

$4.18\overline{66} \times 59^3 = 4.18\overline{66} \times 205379 = 859853.413$

Although our result is one cubic foot off, the answer is <span>A. 859,852ft^3.

(859,852 is the result if the constant in the given formula is 4.18666, but the result with infinitely repeating numbers is 859,853.)</span>

Nigel travels a total of 312 miles to school each day. He walks 14 mile to the bus stop. He travels 234 miles on the city bus. I

Valentin [98]

The bus drops Nigel off 64 miles away from the school.

Step by step Explanation:

An equation for this would be 312-14-234 (this was the equation I used. Since you would do left to write to solve the equation, you would do, 312-14 which equals 298. Then, the equation is left as 298-234, and when you solve that part to the equation, yoh would be getting 64. And that's how you would get the answer 64miles away from the school.
