Answer:

84 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Find the area of the wall.

The wall is 8 ft high and  16 ft wide

A = LW

A = (16)(8)

A = 128 ft²

Step 2: Find the area of the window, fireplace, and mirror.

Window: The window measures 18 in wide  and 14 ft high

18 in = 1.5 ft

A = LW

A = (14)(1.5)

A = 21 ft²

Fireplace: The fireplace is 5 ft wide and 3 ft high

A = LW

A = (3)(5)

A = 15 ft²

Mirror: The mirror above the fireplace is 4 ft wide and 2 ft high

A = LW

A = (2)(4)

A = 8 ft²

Step 3: Add all the areas of the three objects (window, fireplace, and mirror)

A = 21 + 15 + 8

A = 36 + 8

A = 44 ft²

Step 4: Subtract the total area of the objects from the area of the wall.

A = 128 ft² - 44 ft²

A = 84 ft²

84 sq. ft of the wall has to be covered with paint or wallpaper.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Find the area of wallpaper to be covered by calculating the area of the wall and subtracting the areas of the window, mirror and fireplace from it. All are rectangular in shape with are given by A = length × width

Area of the wall = 8 × 16 = 128 ft²

Area of the window = 18/12 × 14 = 1.5 × 14 = 21 ft² (since 1 ft = 12 in)

Area of the fireplace = 5 × 3 = 15 ft²

Area of the mirror = 4 × 2 = 8 ft²

  • Step 2: Calculate the area to be painted or covered with wallpaper

Area of the wall to be covered with paint or wallpaper = 128 - (21 + 15 + 8)

                              = 128 - 44

                              = 84 ft²

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

7x - 9 = x + 3

6x - 9 = 3

6x = 12

x = 2

7(2) - 9 + 2 + 3

14 - 9 + 5

Susan is writing a linear equation for the cost of her cell phone plan. In the first month, she talks for 52 minutes and is char
Alex787 [66]
Assuming that the cost per minute is the same for both months and the plan fee is the same, you can use y=mx+b for this

y is the cost of the phone plan, x is the cost per minute and b is the start cost.

so    19.41=25x+b for the first month
and  45.65=380x+b for the second month

solve both for b you get:
19.41-25x=b and 45.65-380x=b.  from this we get
19.41-25x=45.65-380x

solve for x

328x=26.24 and x=0.08

this means the cost per minute is 0.08c/min (answer A)

rewrite the equation to calculate b, and where this time, the x is the number of minutes talked.

y=0.08x+b and plug in one of the two months

45.65=0.08 * 380 + b

Solve for b and b is 15.25

so the final equation is

y=0.08x+15.25  (answer B)

ch4aika [34]
To do this problem, we need one more piece of information. He need to know the percent of the quarters that are from New York.

If you had that number, just multiply it by 300.

For example, if 10% of the coins were from New York, just multiply by 0.1.
0.1 x 300 = 30
