Answer:
d. 9x + 63 and 63 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
Original
Extended
Required
Determine an expression and the value of the extended area
First, we calculate the area of the original desk
From the given parameters, we have:
--- area of the new surface
Open bracket
The area of the new surface is the summation of the area of the original desk and the area of the extended portion (E)
So:
Make E the subject
Hence, the area of the extended portion is 63
Given:
Consider the below table attached with this question.
Every square meter of ceiling requires 10.75 tiles.
To find:
The missing values in the table.
Solution:
We have,
1 square meter of ceiling = 10.75 tiles. ...(i)
Therefore, the number of tiles corresponding to 1 square meter of ceiling is 10.75.
Multiply both sides by 10.
10×1 square meter of ceiling = 10×10.75 tiles.
10 square meter of ceiling = 107.5 tiles.
Therefore, the number of tiles corresponding to 10 square meter of ceiling is 107.5.
Divide both sides by 10.75 in (i).
square meter of ceiling = 1 tile.
Multiply both sides by 100.
square meter of ceiling = 100 tiles.
On approximating the value, we get
9.3 square meter of ceiling = 100 tiles.
Therefore, the square meters of ceiling corresponding to 100 tiles is about 9.3.
Multiply both sides by a in (i).
a×1 square meter of ceiling = a×10.75 tiles.
a square meter of ceiling = 10.75a tiles.
Therefore, the number of tiles corresponding to a square meter of ceiling is 10.75a.
