Answer: Tom's solution is incorrect.
Step-by-step explanation:
When you add 3/6 + 1/2 it equals ?.
3 + 1 = ?
6 + 2 = ?
We must have common denominators to do this problem.
So we must have 6 as our common denominator.
So 2 x 3 = 6. But we have to do the same to the Numerator.
So 1 x 3 = 3.
Now our problem is 3/6 + 3/6 = ?
3 + 3 = 6/6. Or 1
1 does not equal 4/12 or 1/3. So it makes it Incorrect.
What you should say:
Tom is incorrect, it is because 3/6 + 1/2 = 1, 1 does not equal 4/12 or 1/3. So, it makes it reasonable for the correct answer to be Incorrect
Answer: the area of the garden is 297 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The organic garden at a restaurant is rectangular in shape and has a perimeter of 84ft. This means that the total distance around the restaurant is 84ft.
Perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as 2(L + W)
L = length of the rectangle
W = width of rectangle.
Since the perimeter is 84ft
2(L + W) = 84
If the length of the garden is 24ft longer than the width of the garden, this means that
L = W + 24
Therefore
2(W +24 + W) = 84
2(2W +24) = 84
4W + 48 = 84
4W =84 - 48 = 36
W = 36/4 = 9
L = W + 24 = 9+24
L = 33 feet
Area if a rectangle is expressed as
Area = L× W
Area = 33 × 9 = 297 ft^2
Kilograms or pounds, because a bowling is heavy.
54 would, okay? Since, 50 times 6 = 300, 9 times 6 = 54.
A function assigns exactly one output to each input of a specified type. It is common to name a function either f(x) or g(x) instead of y. f(2) means that we should find the value of our function when x equals 2. f(x) is the value of the function.
