Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Adam is building birdhouses that requires \frac{1}{2} i.e 0.5 feet long boards.

Now, he has an 8\dfrac{1}{4} i.e. 8.25 feet longboard and wants to cut each 0.5 feet longboards.

We have to calculate the number of pieces of exactly 0.5 feet length that can be made from this 8.25 feet longboard.

Now, \frac{8.25}{0.5}= 16.5

So, there can be 16 whole board of exact length 0.5 feet. (Answer)

A psychologist designs an 8-item pain survey asking athletes to identify their level of pain after a football injury. She is
Maslowich

Answer:

<h3>There are 8! ways to answer.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the survey has 8 items, that means we can use the factorial number, because it's a simple permutation.

Using a factorial we have

n! where n=8, which is the total number of items.

8! = 8\times 7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1 = 40,320

Therefore, there are 40,320 ways to answer the survey, or 8! ways.

A square pyramid has a base length of 4 inches. The height of each triangular face is 12 inches. What is the surface area of the
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The surface area of the given pyramid is 112 inches^{2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Base length of the pyramid = 4 inches

Area of the base = length^{2}

                            = 4^{2}

                            = 16

Area of its base = 16 inches^{2}

Area of one of its triangular surface = \frac{1}{2} x base x height

                                 = \frac{1}{2} x 4 x 12

                                 = 2 x 12

                                 = 24 inches^{2}

Area of all its four triangular surfaces = 4 x 24

                                                       = 96 inches^{2}

surface area of the pyramid = sum of areas of all its surfaces

                                               = 16 + 96

                                       = 112 inches^{2}

The surface area of the given pyramid is 112 inches^{2}.
