Answer:

x=2 and XM=11

Step-by-step explanation:

because M is the midpoint of the line, you know that both XM and ZM are equal and you know an expression for the lengths of both of these.

set these expressions equal and solve:

4x+3=3x+5 so by subtracting the 3x from the right side, moving it over to the left and subtracting 3 from the left side to move it over to the right, you get:

x=2

then to find XM, plug in this value of x to get XM=11

4(2)+3=11

Jia is tiling a floor. The floor is a square with side

NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

36 tiles

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find area of the square floor knowing the formula as;

Area= $s^{2}$

where s= side of a square.

If one side of the floor is 12 feet, then Area= $12^{2} = 144ft^{2}$

Next, find the area of each tile using the same formula and given s=2 feet;

Area(tile) = $2^{2} = 4ft^{2}$

To find the number of tiles needed to cover entire floor, divide area of the floor by area of one tile; 144 / 4 = 36 tiles
