Answer:

168

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN: Nadia is making a rectangular moisac out of \frac{1}{2} inch by \frac{1}{2} inch tiles. The rectangle is 12 inches long and 3\frac{1}{2} inches wide.

TO FIND: How many tiles will Nadia use to cover the rectangle completely.

SOLUTION:

Area of rectangular moisac=\text{length}\times\text{width}

                                            =12\times3\frac{1}{2}=\frac{12\times7}{2}

                                            =42 \text{ inch}^2

Area of one   tile =\text{side}^2

                           =\frac{1}{2}\times\frac{1}{2}=\frac{1}{4}\text{ inch}^2

According to question

Total tiles required =\frac{\text{Area of rectangular moisac}}{\text{Area of one tile}}

                                =\frac{42}{\frac{1}{4}}=42\times4

                                =168 tiles

Hence, 168 tiles are required to completely cover the rectangular moisac.

3x-2y=-39 and x+3y=31 solution using elimination
Kobotan [32]
This is hard to write... I hope this makes sense to you...
3x-2y=-39
x+3y= 31
We want to use elimination therefor, we need to either get our x or our y to add together to get zero. 
To do this, we will multiply -3 to (x=3y=31) 
NEW EQUATION
3x-2y=-39 PLUS
-3x-9y= -93 Equals
Answer: -11y= -54 
y= 4.9
Plug in to solve for x (put new y in)
3x-2(4.9)=-39
x= -9.73
