Answer:
r =2.9985yd
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the circumference of a circle is 2
r
where r is the radius and = 3.1415926....
You have
2r = 18.84 yd
2(3.1415926)r = 18.84 yd
6.2831r = 18.84yd
divide through by 6.2831
r = 2.9985yd = aprox 3yds
Let there be 2x science and 5x art books
<span>science books sold = 2x × 0.2 = 0.4x </span>
<span>science books unsold = 2x – 0.4x = 1.6x </span>
<span>art books sold = 5x × 0.2 = x </span>
<span>art books unsold = 5x – x = 4x </span>
<span>total books unsold = 1.6x + 4x = 5.6x </span>
<span>5.6x = 2240 </span>
<span>x = 400 </span>
<span>2x science = 800 </span>
<span>and 5x art books = 2000 </span>
Length of the walkway that needs to be tiled = 60 feet
Width of the walkway that needs to be tiled = 2 feet.
Then
Area of the walkway that needs to be tiled = Length * Breadth
= 60 * 2 square feet
= 120 square feet
Now
Length of the tiles sold by the local store = 2 feet
Width of the tiles sold by the local store = 2 feet
Area covered by the tiles sold by the local store = 2 * 2 feet
= 4 square feet
Number of tiles in a box = 6
Then
Total area covered by a box of tile = (6 * 2) square feet
= 12 square feet
Then
The number of boxes required by Sean = (120/12)
= 10
So 10 boxes of tiles are needed by Sean and his father.
