Answer:
2 11/14 squared feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of a rectangle = length x width
Give length = 3 1/4 and
Width = 3/4
Therefore,
Area = 3 1/4 x 3/4
Change the mixed size fraction to an improperly fraction
We have A = 13/4 x 3/4
39/14
2 11/14 squared feet
You have 2+2 in each 2 there are 1's so
2=(1+1) 2=(1+1) =4
4=1+1+1+1
2+2=4
think of 2's as 1's when adding did you know 2x2= 4 as well.
Because t is the number of weeks, replace t with 6 in the equation and solve for s.
s = -0.25(6) +4
s = -1.5 +4
s = 2.5
Now replace t with multiples of 6, use 12 and 18:
s =-.25(12) +4 = 1
s-0.25(18) +4 = -0.5
now fins the difference between the time frames:
2.5 - 1 = 1.5
1 - 0.5 = 1.5
The ice melts 1.5 meters every 6 weeks.
