Answer:

313.6 sqft.

Step-by-step explanation

Decimal

First, convert the fractions into decimals to make it easier to multiply. 24 1/2 = 24.5. 12 4/5 = 12.8. 24.5*12.8 = 316.6.

Fraction

First, make the fractions into improper fractions. 24 1/2 = 49/2. = 12 4/5 = 64/5. 49/2*64/5 = 313 3/5 = 313 6/10 = 313.6.

Find the perimeter of a square with side a. Are the perimeter of the square and the length of its side directly proportional qua
inna [77]

The perimeter of a square with side a = 7.2 cm is 28.8 cm. Yes there exists a direct proportional relationship between Side length and Perimeter of square

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that side of square "a" = 7.2 cm

We have to find the perimeter of square

<em><u>The perimeter of square is given as:</u></em>

Perimeter of square = 4a

Where "a" represents the length of side of square

Substituting the given value a = 7.2 cm in above formula, we get perimeter of square

Perimeter of square = 4(7.2) = 28.8 cm

<em><u>Are the perimeter of the square and the length of its side directly proportional quantities?</u></em>

\begin{array}{l}{\text { perimeter of square }=4 a=4 \times \text { length of side }} \\\\ {\frac{\text { perimeter of square }}{\text { length of side }}=4}\end{array}

The Perimeter is equal to a constant times the Side length, or the Perimeter divided by the Side length is equal to four. So this is definitely a proportional relationship between Side length and Perimeter.

Two values are said to be in direct proportion when an increase in one results in an increase in the other.

So when length of sides increases, perimeter also increases

Hence perimeter and length of side of square are directly propotional quantities

Simon has a certain length of fencing to enclose a rectangular area. The function AAA models the rectangle's area (in square met
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

When there is no width, the area is 0m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Expressing the area of a rectangle as a function of its width:

Area of a rectangle = Length * width

Since the area of rectangle is related to the width by the multiplication operatkr. We can conclude from the options given that ; if the value of width = 0 ; the the area of rectangular plot = 0

When x :

Area = Length * width

Area = Length * 0

Area = 0

Area = Length * 0

Aea = 0

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
5/13

The x value is negative (second quadrant). 13 is the hypotenuse. So the missing side is 13^2 = (-12)^2 + y^2.

Sin theta is the opposite (5) over hypotenuse (13).

It’s the second one. The symbol means “less than or equal to,” so it would be a closed circle with the arrow pointing to everything less than -1
