Answer:
- square: 12 ft sides
- octagon: 6 ft sides
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be worked in your head.
If the perimeters of the square and regular octagon are the same, the side length of the 4-sided square must be the same as the length of 2 sides of the 8-sided octagon. Since the side of the square is 6 ft more than the side of the octagon, each side of the octagon must be 6 ft, and each side of the square must be 12 ft.
__
We can let s represent the side length of the octagon. Then we have ...
8s = perimeter of octagon
4(s +6) = perimeter of square
These are equal, so ...
4(s +6) = 8s
s +6 = 2s . . . . . . divide by 4
6 = s . . . . . . . . . . subtract s
The octagon has 6-ft sides; the square has 12-ft sides.
Answer:
1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to follow the order of operations. Since there are no parenthesis or exponents, we do multiplication first. to multiple fractions, we multiply the two numerators (top parts), which in this situation would get us 5*1=5. Then, we multiply the two denominators (bottom parts), which would get us 8*2=16. then we put the first result over the second, and we get 5/16. since the two denominators are the same, we don't need to change anything. we can just add the numerator, and get 8/16, which simplifies to 1/2.
