Mark is installing a mosaic tile backsplash and the shape of the tiles are shaped like regular octagons. Each tile has a length

from side to side of 6 in. Once Mark gets a few pieces on the wall, he realized that there is a gap that the tiles do not cover. What size tile must he get to fill the gaps?

Answer:

square with sides of 6 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Tessellation is the arrangement of shapes in repeated patterns without gaps or overlapping.

Tessellation is usually done with regular polygons. Only three regular shapes can tessellate, these are equilateral triangle, regular square and regular hexagon. For other polygon to tessellate, more than one shape must be used. A octagon can be used to make tessellations if it is used together with a square.

Mark uses tiles with shape of octagon of sides 6 in. To fill the gaps, Mark have to uses a square with sides of 6 in

Identify the data set that could be quadratic. HELP ASAP!!
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

Option B can be quadratic.

Step-by-step explanation:

Take a look at the data.

A quadratic equation is of the form ,

y = ax^{2} +bx + c,

where, a,b,c are constants.

<em>To find an unknown equation of 3 variables,</em>

<em>we need 3 points lying on the equation.</em>

here they have given, 5 points, meaning all should lie on the curve.

<em>For first option,</em> inserting first 3 points to find equation, we get equation as,

y = x^{2} -4x +11, but the rest points don't satisfy the curve.

So first option is not quadratic.

Similarly, it can be shown that option C and D are also not quadratic.

While, in option B, it is clear that for every y, x is y squared,

x = y^{2}, thus quadratic in nature.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 16.6km, and its area is 13.42km2. Find its length and width. length : km width : km
Otrada [13]

Answer:

l=5.12 & w=2.62

Step by step explanation:

A=l×w

13.42=lw

w=13.42/l

p = 2(l + w) \\ 16.6 = 2(l +  \frac{13.42}{l} ) \\ 16.6 = 2( \frac{ {l}^{2}  + 13.42}{l}) \\ 16.6 = 2(l + 13.42) \\ 16.6 = 2l + 26.84 \\ 2l = 26.84 - 16.6 \\ 2l = 10.24 \\ l =  \frac{10.24}{2}  \\ l = 5.12km

Since you have found the value of the length you can find the value.of the width.

w =  \frac{13.42}{l}  \\ w =  \frac{13.42}{5.12}  \\ w = 2.62km
