Answer:

<u>Perimeter</u>:

= 58 m (approximate)

= 58.2066 or 58.21 m (exact)

<u>Area:</u>

= 208 m² (approximate)

= 210.0006 or 210 m² (exact)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following dimensions of a rectangle:

length (L) = \sqrt{252} meters

width (W) = \sqrt{175} meters

The formula for solving the perimeter of a rectangle is:

P  = 2(L + W) or 2L + 2W

The formula for solving the area of a rectangle is:

A = L × W

<h2>Approximate Forms:</h2>

In order to determine the approximate perimeter, we must determine the perfect square that is close to the given dimensions.  

13² = 169

14² = 196

15² = 225

16² = 256

Among the perfect squares provided, 16² = 256 is close to 252 (inside the given radical for the length), and 13² = 169 (inside the given radical for the width).  We can use these values to approximate the perimeter and the area of the rectangle.

P  = 2(L + W)

P = 2(13 + 16)

P = 58 m (approximate)

A = L × W

A = 13 × 16

A = 208 m² (approximate)

<h2>Exact Forms:</h2>

L = \sqrt{252} meters = 15.8745 meters

W = \sqrt{175} meters = 13.2288 meters

P  = 2(L + W)

P = 2(15.8745 + 13.2288)

P = 2(29.1033)

P = 58.2066 or 58.21 m

A = L × W

A = 15.8745 × 13.2288

A = 210.0006 or 210 m²

Adam is building birdhouses that requires 1/2-ft-long boards. How many pieces that are exactly 1/2 ft long can be made from a bo
Julli [10]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

Adam is building birdhouses that requires \frac{1}{2} i.e 0.5 feet long boards.

Now, he has an 8\dfrac{1}{4} i.e. 8.25 feet longboard and wants to cut each 0.5 feet longboards.

We have to calculate the number of pieces of exactly 0.5 feet length that can be made from this 8.25 feet longboard.

Now, \frac{8.25}{0.5}= 16.5

So, there can be 16 whole board of exact length 0.5 feet. (Answer)

Which fraction expresses -30/54 in lowest terms?
Pavlova-9 [17]
-30/54 in simplest form:

First, we can start out by finding the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerator (30) and the denominator (54). To do so, we will list the factors of each number, find the common ones and then the greatest.

Factors of 30: 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30
Factors of 54: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54

Look through both sets of factors. Which are the common factors? 1, 2, 3, and 6 are the common factors of 30 and 54. Now, we have the find the greatest common factor. Basically, which number has greater value out of 1, 2, 3, and 6? The GCF is 6.

Second, our last step is to divide the numerator (30) and denominator (54) by our recently found GCF which was 6. This will create a new fraction which is in simplest form.

30 \div 6 = 5 \\ 54 \div 6 = 9

Let's collect our new numerator and denominator and rewrite our brand new fraction in its simplest form. 
-\frac{5}{9}

Answer in fraction form:\fbox {-5/9}
Answer in decimal form: \fbox {-0.5556}

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Can a triangle with the following sides exist? 7, 8, 1

Answer is NO

Because the sum of any two sides has to be greater than the third side but here we have:

  • 8 = 7+1
