No solution but the equation is true
First, convert those inches to feet.
7in =ish 0.5833333
(you find this by dividing 7/12 on a calculator)
Now you just square 9.583333333
9.583333333^2
9.583333333 * 9.583333333
91.84027777ish
Rounded to the nearest foot, means the answer is 92ft.
Answer:
The change in the area of the rectangle is 0 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem we have to calculate the area of the two rectangles that give us
first we have to know the formula to calculate the area of a rectangle
a = area
l = length = 12ft
w = width = 5ft
a = l * w
we replace the known walues
a = 12ft * 5ft
a = 60ft²
we do the same with the other rectangle, but first we have to calculate its sides
w = 5ft - (5ft * 20/100)
w = 5ft - 1ft
w = 4ft
l = 12ft + (12ft * 25/100)
l = 12ft + 3ft
l = 15ft
a2 = 15ft * 4ft
a2 = 60ft²
to calculate the change in the area we subtract (a - a2)
a - a2 =
60ft² - 60ft² = 0ft²
