Answer:

i. No, Maurice statement is wrong.

ii. Stephan does not have sufficient pieces of wood to make the tray because the square inches required is more than what he has.

Step-by-step explanation:

Stephan's piece of wood measures; 18 inches in length and 12 inches in width.

Since the piece of wood has a shape of a rectangle,

the area of the piece of wood = length × width

                                                = 18 × 12

                                               = 216 square inches

According to Maurice's statement, he could make a tray that has a base of 1012 inches by 1012 inches.

The base has the shape of a square, so that;

    the area of the base = length × width =

                                      = 1012 ×1012

                                     = 1024144 squared inches

This shows that Stephan does not have sufficient wood to make the tray because the square inches required is more than what he has. and 16 more users found this answer helpful

"The number of blue markers in a drawer is 4 more than twice the number of red markers."
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

b=2r+4

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't think that you can do this using only one variable because there are two unknown amounts. Blue (b) is Red (r) multiplied by 2 plus 4 more, so the expression is b=2r+4.

Which statement describes the daily motion of the moon?
vladimir1956 [14]

hi again uwu

Answer:  i know that the moon rises in the east, and takes 27 1/3 days to go around the earth....

Step-by-step explanation:

because every time Earth spins around once the moon moves about 13 degrees east along its orbit.Thus, the Earth must rotate an extra 13 degrees more each day for a point on its surface to be roughly under the moon again. since earth takes about 50 minutes to spin 13 degrees the moon rises about 50 minutes later each day and sets about 50 minutes later too.

What is the diameter of a circle with the endpoints (4, 3) and (4, -3)?
Dahasolnce [82]

Given the endpoints of our diameter, we can use the distance formula to find the distance between the points.


Distance Formula:

\sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2

(x_2 and x_1 are the x-values of the coordinates and y_2 and y_1 are the y-values of the coordinates)


Inserting our values into the distance formula we can find the length of the diameter:

\sqrt{(4 - 4)^2 + (-3 - 3)^2}

\sqrt{(-6)^2}

\sqrt{36} = \boxed{6}


The diameter of our circle is 6, or choice C.
