MODELING REAL LIFE A green roof is like a traditional roof but covered with plants. Plants used for a green roof cost $0.75 per

square foot. The roof shown is 40 feet long. How much does it cost to cover both sides of the roof?

Answer:

$1200

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the roof be square shaped

Area of the roof = L²

L is the side length of the roof

Given

L = 40ft

Area of the roof = 40²

Area of the roof = 1600ft²

If plants used for a green roof cost $0.75 per square foot, this means

1 ft² = $0.75

Let the cost needed to cover both sides of the roof be y, hence;

1600ft² = y

Divide both expressions

1/1600 = 0.75/y

y × 1 = 0.75×1600.

y = 0.75×1600

y = 1200

Hence it will cost $1200 to cover both sides of the roof

<h2>○=> <u>Correct options</u> :</h2><h2>□ $\color{plum}\tt\bold{(C) \: SR = 27}$ </h2><h2>□ $\color{plum}\tt\bold{(D) \: QR = 54 }$ </h2><h3><u>Steps to derive the correct options</u> :</h3>

Since two sides and one included angle is equal in △PQS and △PRS, we can conclude that they are congruent under the SAS congruence criterion.

Which means :

▪︎Angle S = Angle S

▪︎PS = PS

▪︎QS = RS

Given :

Measure of segment QS = 6n+3

Measure of segment RS = 4n+11

Thus :

$= \tt6n + 3 = 4n + 11$

$= \tt6n + 3 - 4n = 11$

$=\tt 2n + 3 = 11$

$= \tt2n = 11 - 3$

$= \tt2n = 8$

$=\tt n = \frac{8}{2}$

$\hookrightarrow\color{plum}\tt n = 4$

Thus, the value of n = 4

Measure of segment QS :

$=\tt 6n + 3$

$= \tt6 \times 4 + 3$

$= \tt24 + 3$

$\color{plum}\tt \: \bold{QS = 6n + 3 = \tt\bold{27}}$

Thus, measure of QS = 27

Measure of RS :

$=\tt 4n + 11$

$=\tt 4 × 4 + 11$

$=\tt 16+11$

$\color{plum}\tt \: \bold{RS = 4n + 11 = \tt\bold{27}}$

Measure of QR :

$=\tt 27+27$

$\color{plum}\tt \: \bold{QR = 27+27 \tt\bold{=54}}$

Thus :

▪︎QS = 27

▪︎RS = 27

▪︎QR = 54

Therefore, the correct options are :

▪︎(C) SR = 27

▪︎(D) QR = 54

How many significant figures in 0.003010

Tamiku [17]

4 significant figures.
we can start counting the numbers after all the zeros in front. the zeros in front doesn't count in. but the zeros after the first number that is 1 or larger counts.
therefore we only need to look at 3010

What is the sum of 7 3/16+3/4

muminat

Answer:

7 15/16

Step-by-step explanation:

find the same denominator which is 16

3/4x4/4 = 12/16

7 3/16+12/16= 7 15/16

probably bad explanation but hope it helps.. :)
