Answer:

b. She should choose the rectangular tiles because the total cost will be $8 less.

Step-by-step explanation:

Which tile should Orchid choose to minimize costs? Explain.

a. She should choose the square tiles because the total cost will be $8 less.

b. She should choose the rectangular tiles because the total cost will be $8 less.

c. She should choose the square tiles because the total cost will be $14 less.

d. She should choose the rectangular tiles because the total cost will be $14 less.

Area of a square tile = 1/2 × 1/2

= 1/4

= 0.25 square feet

Area of rectangular tile = 2 × 1/4

= 2/4

= 0.5 square feet

Number of square tile needed = Area of the bathroom floor / Area of the square tile

= 40 square feet / 0.25 square feet

= 160

Number of square tile needed = 160

Cost of square tile needed = number of tiles × cost per tile

= 160 × $0.45

= $72

Cost of square tile needed = $72

Number of rectangular tile needed = Area of the bathroom floor / Area of the rectangular tile

= 40 square feet / 0.5 square feet

= 80

Number of rectangular tile needed = 80

Cost of rectangular tile needed = number of tiles × cost per tile

= 80 × $0.80

= $64

Cost of rectangular tile needed = $64

Cost of square tile needed = $72

Cost of rectangular tile needed = $64

70 - 5x = number of people waiting in line to buy tickets x minutes after a ticket booth opened is given by 70 - 5x. What does t
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The 70 represents the number of people waiting to by tickets at the exactly moment when the ticket booth is opened.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 70 represents the number of people waiting to by tickets at the exactly moment when the ticket booth is opened.

You can see this by setting the x value to 0, it is, in the precise moment when the booth opened (as x cant be negative, because there is no negative time, you could also think of 70 as the number of people waiting before the booth opens).

x=\frac{-{\color{#e8710a}{b}} \pm \sqrt{{\color{#e8710a}{b}}^{2}-4{\color{#c92786}{a}}{\color{#129eaf}{c}}}}{2{\color{#c92786}{a}}}

x=2a−b±b2−4ac

Once in standard form, identify a, b and c from the original equation and plug them into the quadratic formula.

What is the simplified form of the following expression?(x10)(x2) x8 x12 x20 x100
notka56 [123]
I believe the answer would be x20. Between the two parentheses there's a multiplication symbol. So you would just pretend that the parentheses aren't there cause the variable(s) (x) is/are like terms. So you would just multiply 10 times 2 and put out the x back in front of it
