Answer: He is incorrect because the area of the tent is 4.08m2 and not 408m2

Step-by-step explanation:

A tent has a length of 240cm and a breadth of 170cm and a friend claims the area of the tent is 408 m2.

To calculate the area of the tent, we convert the length and breadth in centimeters to meters. Recall that 100 centimeters= 1 meter. This will give:

Length = 240cm = 240/100 = 2.4m

Breadth= 170cm = 170/100 = 1.7m

Area = Length × Breadth

= 2.4m × 1.7m

= 4.08m2

He is incorrect because the area of the tent is 4.08m2 and not 408m2.

We know that
area of the tent=length*breath
length=240 cm---convert to m---> 240/100----> 2.40 m
breath=170 cm----convert to m---> 170/100----> 1.70 m

find the area
area=2.40*1.70-----> area=4.08 m²

therefore

the answer is
<span>the friend's statement is incorrect the area is 4.08 m</span>²

marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

d(m) = (1.05 miles/min)*m

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 2 5/8 miles by 3 1/2 minutes to obtain the unit rate (miles per minute):

2 5/8 miles

--------------------

3 1/2 minutes


First, convert 2 5/8 miles and 3 1/2 minutes to improper fractions:

21/8 miles             21/8 miles

------------------  =  ----------------------  =  21/20 miles/minute

5/2 minutes         20/8 minutes


The constant rate is (21/20) miles/minute, or 1.05 miles/minute.

Thus, the equation representing the distance, d, that the car travels in m minutes is

d(m) = (1.05 miles/min)*m

masya89 [10]
Answer: It will take 7 stages for all 19,530 families to be called.

In the first stage, only 5 families are called.

In the second stage, we would have 5 x 5 = 25 families being called.

In the third stage, we would have 5 x 5 x 5 = 125 families being called.
We can use exponents to finish the list and see when our goal is reached.

4th stage: 5^4 = 625

5th stage: 5^5 = 3125

6th stage: 5^6 = 15625

7th stage: 5^7 = 78,125
