14. x ^2 = 12^2 + 7 ^2 = x = sqrt (12^2 + 7^2) = sqrt(193)
The total area is given by:
A1 = (300) * (500)
A1 = 150000 feet ^ 2
The area occupied by 5 people is:
A2 = (5) * (5)
A2 = 25 feet ^ 2
Then, we can make the following rule of three:
5 --------> 25
x --------> 150000
Clearing x we have:
x = (150000/25) * (5)
x = 30000
Answer:
D. 30,000 people
Hello!
You find the area of a rectangle by the equation A = lw
A is area
l is length
w is width
Put in the values you know
180 = 3x * 6
Now you solve it algebraically
Divide both sides by 6
30 = 3x
Divide both sides by 3
10 = x
The answer is 10in
Hope this helps!
