Answer:

  • 3960 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The pentagon has been split into 5 congruent triangles.

<u>Each triangle has area of:</u>

  • 1/2*48*\sqrt{40.8^2 - (48/2)^2} = 24*\sqrt{1088.64} = 24*33 = 792 ft²

<u>The area of the room is:</u>

  • 792*5 = 3960 ft²

Which of the following equations best models the data plotted below?
ICE Princess25 [194]
The key with these problems is to find which function has the closest y-intercept to the graph, and then try to figure out which one best approximates the slope. 
Here are our options:
<span>A. y = x + 4 
B. y = 4x + 9 
C. y = x + 18 
D. y = 3x + 22
 
Which has the closest approximation of the y-intercept? 
The y-intercept is not directly given, but we can assume it is less than 10. 
That leaves us with A and B.

Which has the closest approximation of the slope? 
The graph, on average, seems to move up about 60 and over about 15. 
Slope = rise/run = 60/15 = 4. Although the slope isn't exactly 4, it's much closer to 4 than 1, which is slope for option A.

Therefore, the answer is 
B) y= 4x + 9

Given

Joe needs \frac{3}{4} butter for each cake

One stick of butter is equivalent to 0.5 cup

So, joe need

\dfrac{3}{4}\times \dfrac{1}{2}=\dfrac{3}{8}\ \text{cup}

for each cake

To bake 8 cakes, it is

\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{4}\times 8=6\ \text{sticks}
