If you would like to know who is the tallest, you can calculate this using the following steps:
Jackie ... j
Samuel: 5/8 inch + j = 5/8 + j = 0.625 + j
Shelly: 0.7 inch + j = 0.7 + j
Craig: 1/2 inch + j = 1/2 + j = 0.5 + j
The correct result would be: Shelly is the tallest.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of polygon = area of square + area of triangle
Square:
Side = 12 cm
Area of square = side *side
= 12 * 12
= 144 sq.cm
Triangle:
base (b) = 12 cm
Height h = 19 cm
= 6 * 19
= 114 sq.cm
Area of polygon = 144 + 114 = 258 square cm
Number of seats = 42
Seats per row x row = 1302
s x r = 1302
rows + 11 = seats per row
r + 11 = s
s x r = 1302
(r + 11) x r = 1302
r^2 + 11r = 1302
r^2 + 11r - 1302 = 0
(r + 42) x (r - 31) = 0
r = -43 or 31
Cannot have negative rows so the number of rows is 31, and the number of seats per row is 31 + 11 = 42
Check: 31 x 42 = 1302 :)
