Richard s kitchen floor measures 22 ft by 16ft. He plans on laying title down and each tile piece measures 16 inches by 16 inche
olya-2409 [2.1K]
We calculate the floor area of the kitchen:
 A = (22) * (16)
 A = 352 feet ^ 2
 We consider the following conversion:
 1 foot = 12 inches.
 Applying the conversion we have:
 A = 352 * (12/1) ^ 2
 A = 50688 in ^ 2
 We calculate the area of each tile:
 A = (16) * (16)
 A = 256 in ^ 2
 Then, the number of tiles is given by:
 N = (50688) / (256)
 N = 198
 Answer:
 He
 needs to buy 198 tiles

Six years after a tree was planted, its height was 7 feet. Nine years after it was planted, its height was 16 feet. Which of the
pychu [463]
Considering that the grows at a constant rate we can form an equation where x = how many years after it was planted
and y = its height

Now we just need to find how many feet it grows each year. To do that we just need to compare its height from a certain age to another:
6 years after it was planted : 7 feet,
so x=6 and y = 7

9 years after it was planted: 16 feet
so x= 9 y=16

With thay we can conclude that in 3 years , the tree grew 9 feet. To discover how much the tree grow each year we just nee to divide 9 feet by 3 years which is 3 feet every year.

To write the equatopn now we just need to find the y-intercept which we can discover by setting x to 0:
If in 6 years after the tree was planted it is 7 feet long , we can discover how long it was when it was planted by subtracting 6 years of growth (The slope ) which is 3
7 - 6(years)×3(feet the tree grow each year)
7 - 18 = -11
The tree was -11 feet long when it was planted
which is our y-intercept
( I know it doesnt make sense , but if you apply to a graph it will make more sense )


Now we can make the equation
y = 3x -11
