If I remember correctly it is equal
Answer:
<u>The correct answer is 58 1/2 feet. See below to understand the difference of both methods.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information provided to us for solving the question using both methods:
Area of each student = 4 1/2 square feet
Number of students = 13
2. Let's use the first method to solve the question:
4 1/2 = 9/2 (Improper fraction because the numerator, 9 is bigger than the denominator, 2)
9/2 * 13 = 117/2
<u>117/2 = 58 1/2 square feet</u>
3. Let's use the second method to solve the question:
4 1/2 = 4 + 1/2 (Using addition to rewrite the fraction)
(4 + 1/2) * 13 = (4 * 13) + (1/2 * 13) (Distributive property of the multiplication)
(4 * 13) + (1/2 * 13) = 52 + 13/2 = 52 + 6 1/2
<u>52 + 6 1/2 = 58 1/2 square feet</u>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of the figure = Are of square with side 8 in + 2 times the area of one triangle with base (8 - 5 = 3) 3 in and height 4 in
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula F = 1.8C + 32 can be used to find the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit F when the temperature is given in degrees Celsius C. For what value is the temperature in degrees Fahrenheit equal to the temperature in degrees Celsius? Justify your reasoning by writing and solving an equation. (Hint: If Fahrenheit and Celsius are equal, they can be assigned the same variable.)
