The ceiling of Katie’s living room is a square that is 15 ft long on each side. To decorate for a party, she plans to hang crepe

paper around the perimeter of the ceiling and then from each corner to the opposite corner. Katie can buy rolls that each contain 20 ft of crepe paper. What is the minimum number of rolls she should buy? Show your work.

I think that 3 rolls is wrong and that 6 rolls is right. If you create a 15 by 15 square and draw two lines through the center that connect to the opposite corner, you'll be able to use the Pythagorean Theorem.


Perimeter: 15+15+15+15=60ft.


Length of Line from Corner to Corner:

(15)(15)+(15)(15)=C^2

225+225=C^2

450=C^2

21.2=C

21.2(2)= 42.4ft.

42.4ft.+60ft.= 102.4ft.

102.4ft. divided by 20ft. = 5.12 = <u>6 rolls</u>

On a straight road, a car speeds up at a constant rate from rest to 20 m/s over a 5 second interval and a truck slows at a const
KIM [24]
To determine the total distance traveled by an object in constant speed, just multiply the speed by the time. So, for the car, the total distance traveled is,
                               distance by car = (20 m/s)(5s) = 100 m
For decelerating object, the distance traveled is,
                          distance = Vt - (at^2)/2
For the truck,
         distance by truck = (20 m/s)(10s) - (2m/s^2)((10s)^2)/2 = 100 m

Relatively, both have traveled the same distance.
