We calculate the floor area of the kitchen:
A = (22) * (16)
A = 352 feet ^ 2
We consider the following conversion:
1 foot = 12 inches.
Applying the conversion we have:
A = 352 * (12/1) ^ 2
A = 50688 in ^ 2
We calculate the area of each tile:
A = (16) * (16)
A = 256 in ^ 2
Then, the number of tiles is given by:
N = (50688) / (256)
N = 198
Answer:
He needs to buy 198 tiles
Hello! I can help you! In general, the larger the size, the larger the cost. We will assume that $8 is the youth size and $12 is the adult size. x is the youth side and y is the adult side. The first part of the equation is 8x + 12y, BUT the key words in the problem are AT MOST, so out sign will be less than or equal to (≤), because the number can't be higher than 216, but it could be right at that number or less, so the equation is 8x + 12y ≤ 216. The answer is A.
Answer:
At most Mr.Gengel can cut at most 13 pieces with half a foot left.
Treat as an equality, except flip the sign direction when yo multiply or divide both sides by a negative number
first distribute
2(4+2x)<u>></u>5x+5
distribute
8+4x<u>></u>5x+5
minus 4x fro both sides
8<u>></u>x+5
minus 5 from both sides
3<u>></u>x
x<u><</u>3
x is less than or equal to 3
