In a greenhouse, basil is grown in planters that have a base of 4 1 4 in by 1 2 3 in. If there is a 4 × 4 array of these planter

s with no space between them, what is the area covered by the planters?

Answer:

The area covered by the planters is 113.6 square inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the dimmensions of the greenhouse are 4 1/4 by 1 2/3 inches. We first need to convert them from mixed fractions to normal fractions, we do that by summing the integer part to the fraction one. We have:

length = 4 + 1/4 = 16/4 + 1/4 = 17/4 inches

width = 1 + 2/3 = 3/3 + 2/3 = 5/3 inches

The area of the greenhouse is given by:

area = length*width

area = (17/4)*(5/3) = 85/12 = 7.1 square inches

Since there is an array of 4x4 there is a total of 16 greenhouses and it's total area is 16*7.1 = 113.6 square inches

Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

Multiply:

$(x+y)by (x+y)$

$: \implies(x + y)(x + y)$

$: \implies \: x(x + y) + y(x + y)$

$: \implies {x}^{2} + xy + xy + {y}^{2}$

$: \implies{x}^{2} + 2xy + {y}^{2}$

Multiply:

$a+b \: by \: a^2-b^2$

$: \implies( {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} ) \times (a + b)$

$: \implies \: {a}^{2} (a + b) - {b}^{2} (a + b)$

$: \implies \: {a}^{3} + {a}^{2} b - {ab}^{2} - {b}^{3}$

Multiply:

$(a+5) by (a^2-2a-3)$

$: \implies{(a + 5) \times ( {a}^{2} - 2a - 3) }$

$: \implies \: a({a}^{2} - 2a - 3) + 5( {a}^{2} - 2a - 3)$

$: \implies(a \times {a}^{2} - a \times 2a - a \times 3) + (5 \times {a}^{2} - 5 \times 2a - 5 \times 3)$

$: \implies{a}^{3} - {2a}^{2} - 3a + 5 {a}^{2} - 10a - 15$

$: \implies{ {a}^{3} + {3a}^{2} - 13a - 15}$

Multiply:

$(a^2-ab+b^3) by (a+b)$

$: \implies{(a + b) \times ( {a}^{2} - ab + {b}^{3} )}$

$: \implies \: a( {a}^{2} - ab + {b}^{3}) + b( {a}^{2} - ab + {b}^{3} )$

$: \implies {a}^{3} - {a}^{2} b + a {b}^{3} + {a^2b} - {ab}^{2} + {b}^{4}$

$: \implies{ {a}^{3}+ab^3 - ab^2+ {b}^{4} }$

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer: 120 schools

Step-by-step explanation:

3,120 students competed in a statewide athletic competition and each participating school district sent 26 students to the athletic competition.

Total number of students= 3120

Total students sent by each school= 26

Number of participating school districts= Total number of students ÷ he students sent by each school

= 3120 / 26

= 120 students

There are 120 participating schools in the competition
