12,900 BTU's are required to cool the room effectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

We must calculate the area of the entire shape to determine the minimum BTU's required to cool the room effectively.

It is made up of a semi-circle a rectangle, and a trapezoid.

Step 2:

The area of a semi-circle =\frac{ \pi r^{2} }{2} .

Here, the diameter is 20 feet so the radius is 10 feet.

The area of the semi-circle =\frac{ \pi r^{2} }{2} =\frac{ (\pi) (10^{2}) }{2} = 157.079 square feet.

The area of a rectangle = (l)(w).

The length of the rectangle is 22 feet and the width is 20 feet.

The area of a rectangle = (l)(w) =(22)(20) = 440 square feet.

The area of a trapezoid =\frac{a+b}{2} (h).

Here a=12, b= 20, h= 3.

The area of a trapezoid =\frac{12+20}{2} (3) = 48 square feet.

Step 3:

The total area of the floor plan =157.079+440+48 = 645.079 square feet.

If 20 BTU's are required for a single square foot,

The number of BTU's for 645.079 square feet = (645.079)(20)=12,901.58 BTU's.

Rounding this off, we get 12,900 BTU's required  to cool the room effectively.

Cesar can hike at 3 1/3 miles in 2 hours. Bella can hike 1/3 mile in 1/4 hour.
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Cesar goes 1 2\3 miles in an hour

Bella goes 1 1\3 miles in an hour

Cesar is hiking faster

Step-by-step explanation:

Cesar: you half 3 1\3 because you need to half the time of 2 hours to determine how far he goes in an hour. 3 1\3 halved is 1 2\3

Bella: You must multiply 1\3 4 times in order to get the 1\4 hour to a whole hour. 1\3 4 times is 1 1\3.

Speed: Cesar goes 1 2\3 mph while Bella goes only 1 1\3 therefore Cesar is going faster
