True. No imaginary number is considered "whole", all whole numbers are rational and real.
Answer:
a) area = side²
225 in² = side²
side = √225 = 15 inches
b) 15 inches per side x 4 sides x $1.35 per inch = $81.00

Answer: To get 24
Step-by-step explanation
What you would need to do is first multiply 12 x 5 would come out as 60.
Then from 60 you subtract 17 and 12 to get 5. Divide by the 5 that you just got from 17 and 12 and to get 20. Using the 4 add it to the 20 to get 24.
"measures to the nearest tenth of a pound" tell us to round each of the weights listed to the nearest tenth (since the unit is already pounds, no conversion is needed). What this means is if the second number to the right of the decimal is 5 or greater, then we add 1 to the first number to the right of the decimal (and replace the second number with a zero). With all this said, it's much easier to show you, rather than to try to explain it. :D
4.35 is rounded up to 4.4 because the second number to the right of the decimal is 5.
Packet A = 4.4
Packet B = 4.4
Packet C = 4.5
Packed D = 4.4
The question is asking what the heaviest reading will be, so from the whole list above we pick the highest number which is 4.5 pounds. Notice how the answer is not Packet C, or 4.48 pounds, but 4.5 pounds. It is asking for the reading, not the packet, nor the weight. Hope this helps.
