Answer: The city will need 33 trees.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we simply have to divide the length of the path (5 1/2 miles) distance between trees (1/6).

Mathematically speaking:

5 1/2 ÷ 1/6 = (5x2+1) /2 ÷1/6 = 11/2 ÷1/6 = (11x6) /(2x1) = 66/2 =33 trees

The city will need 33 trees.

A counter top is 18 feet long and 3 feet wide. What is the area of the counter top in square meters? Use the conversion 1 foot =

podryga [215]

Answer:

Area of the counter top is $5.02\ m^2$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of the Counter top = 18 feet

Width of the counter top = 3 feet

We need to find the area of the counter top is square meter;

Solution:

Now we need to find the area of the counter top is square meter.

But given data is in feet so we will first convert feet into meters.

1 foot = 0.305 meter.

So 18 feet = Number of meters in 18 feet.

By Using Unitary method we get;

Number of meters in 18 feet = $18\times 0.305 = 5.49\ m$

Length of the Counter top = 5.49 m

Also 3 feet = Number of meters in 3 feet.

Again Using Unitary method we get;

Number of meters in 3 feet = $3\times 0.305 = 0.915\ m$

Width of the counter top = 0.915 m

Now we know that;

Area of the counter top can be calculated by multiplying Length of the counter top with width of the counter top.

framing in equation form we get;

Area of the counter top = $5.49\times 0.915 = 5.0233\ m^2$

Rounding up to 2 decimals we get;

Area of the counter top = $5.02\ m^2$

Hence Area of the counter top is $5.02\ m^2$ .

Can you simplify 3(x+2) = 3x+6 in distributive property

Vanyuwa [196]

Hello XD

3(x+2) = 3x+6

Distributive property

(3)(x)+(3)(2) = 3x+6

3x+ 6 = 3x+6

Now subtract 3x from both sides

3x+6-3x = 3x+6-3x

6=6

Subtract 6 from both sides

6-6 = 6-6

0=0

In this case the answer is : All real numbers are solution

4) The triangle on the right is an equilateral Find the value of X and Y

ozzi

Answer:

angle Y is 29 degrees

angle X is 120 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, if the triangle is an equilateral, then all the angles are equal to

60 degrees

that means the the angle at the top point is 60+31 = 91 degrees

the right point is 60 degrees

every triangle has 180 degrees total

180 - (91+60) = 29 degrees

NOW FORGET ABOUT THE EQUILATERAL FOR A BIT

180 = 31+x+29

simplify

180 = 60+x

subtract 60 from both sides

120 = x

Alice wants to fence in a rectangular pay area for her rabbits. The length of the area should be at least 20ft, and the distance

dlinn [17]

This looks like common core which is never straight forward.It seems as though they are asking for the perimeter and not area,since they used feet for the distance around instead of sq.ft.
