The room is 14w and 23 l

she can buy up to 190 sqft

190 factors into 10 and 19

14 - 10 = 4
23 - 19 = 4
Which are uniform

so the answer is 10 ft wide and 19 ft long

Hope this helps

Mr. Williams is painting only the back of his barn. A gallon of paint covers 70 square feet. How many square feet will Mr. Willi
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

Option A. 264 ft² ; 4 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given question is incomplete; find the complete question in the attachment.

From the picture attached,

Area of the barn to be painted = Area of the (rectangular base + Triangular top) - Area of the window

Area of the rectangular base = 12 × 18

                                                = 216 ft²

Area of the triangular top = \frac{1}{2}(\text{Base}\times \text{Height})

                                          = \frac{1}{2}(12)(28-18)

                                          = 60 square feet

Area of the window = 3 ft × 4 ft

                                 = 12 ft²

Total area to be painted = 216 + 60 - 12

                                         = 264 ft²

∵ 70 square feet of the barn is covered by the amount of paint = 1 gallon

∴ 1 square feet will be covered by the amount = \frac{1}{70} gallons

∴ 264 square feet will be painted by = \frac{264}{70}

                                                             = 3.77 gallons

                                                             ≈ 4 gallons

Therefore, Option (A). 264 ft²; 4 gallons will be the answer.

If an 8" X 8" square cake serves 8 people, how many 24" X 24" square cakes are needed for a
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

2 24" X 24" square cakes are needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved by proportions.

Area of a square:

The area of a square of side l is given by:

A = l^2

8" X 8" square cake serves 8 people

Thus:

A = 8*8 = 64

Area of 64 serves 8 people, so for 1 people, an area of 64/8 = 8 is needed.

144 people

The total area needed is:

A = 144*8 = 1152

How many 24" X 24" square cakes?

24*24 = 576

1 cake - 576

x cakes - 1152

Applying cross multiplication:

1152/576 = 2

2 24" X 24" square cakes are needed.
