Since the area of a square is s^2, you can take the square root of 26 to find the answer
Answer:
10 boxes
Step-by-step explanation:
Take the number of fossils and divide by the number per box to determine the number of boxes
60/6 = 10
She needs 10 boxes
So, first, what are the two sides?
let's call then x and y
we know that 2(x+y)=12.5 (that's the distance around)
so that means that x+y=6.25 (I just divided both by 2)
now, x=4y (from "4 times as long as it is wide")
so we can substitute:
x+4x=6.25
5x=6.25
x=1.25
so one side, is 1.25 and the other will be 1.25*4=5
and for the area we multiply the two:
1.25*5=6.25 square kilometers, and this is the answer!
Answer:
31.43
Step-by-step explanation:
3 1/7 = 3.14285714285
3 1/7 x 10 = 31.4285714286 which is about 31.43
