1 side of a square room measures 18 feet. How many square yards of carpet are necessary to carpet the room

Answers

18 ft= 54 yds.
a square has four equal sides, so 54 times 54 equals 2,916
Your answer is 2,916 square yards

First, let's convert the measurement from feet to yards. We know that 1 yard equals 3 feet. So, to find the length in yards, we need to divide the given length in feet by 3.

This gives us 18 feet ÷ 3 = 6 yards. So, one side of the room measures 6 yards.

Next, to find the area of the room in square yards, we need to remember that the formula for the area of a square is side length squared (side^2) because all sides of a square are equal.

So, we calculate 6 yards (the converted side length) multiplied by itself:

6 yards × 6 yards = 36 square yards.

Therefore, 36 square yards of carpet are necessary to fully carpet the room.

Answer: 36 square yards

A grocer stacks oranges in a four-sided pyramid that is 7 layers high. How many oranges are in the pile? A.504 B.840 C.140 D.120

Answers

Answer:

Option C. 140

Step-by-step explanation:

Base of a pyramid which has four triangular sides is four sided.

If pyramid contains seven layers of oranges then the layer at the bottom will have 7 oranges.

Since base is a square then other side of the square base will have the same number of oranges = 7.

Therefore number of oranges at the first layer will be = 7×7

Similarly other layers above this layer will have the same sequence

6×6, 5×5, 4×4, 3×3, 2×2, 1×1

Therefore total number of oranges = 7×7 + 6×6 + 5×5 + 4×4 + 3×3 + 2×2 + 1×1 = 49 + 36 + 25 + 16 + 9 + 4 + 1 = 140

Option C. 140 is the answer.

A grocer stacks oranges in a four-sided pyramid that is 7 layers high. Many oranges are in the pile are C.140

Further explanation

The orange is the fruit of the citrus species Citrus and sinensis in the family Rutaceae, native to China. Orange is also called sweet orange, to distinguish it from the related Citrus and aurantium, referred to as bitter orange.

The proper name of four-sided pyramid is a "tetrahedron". The tetrahedron has the extra interesting property of having all four triangular sides congruent

1st Layer: The 1st layer contains only 1 orange so it has only 1 orange

2nd layer: The 2nd layer has total 4 oranges. Calculation:   2*2=4

3rd layer: The 3rd layer has total 9 oranges. Calculation: 3 * 3 = 9

4th Layer: The 4th layer has total 16 oranges. Calculation: 4 * 4 = 16.

5th layer: The 5th layer has total 25 oranges. Calculation:  5 * 5 = 25

6th layer: The 6th layer has total 36 oranges. Calculation: 6 * 6 = 36

7th layer: The 7th layer has total 49 oranges. Calculation: 7 * 7 = 49.

Sum of all layers:

1+4+9+16+25+36+49 = 140

Which list of ordered pairs represents solutions to x + y = 2 ? (-4, 6), (0, 2), (4, 2) (-4, -6), (0, 2), (4, 2) (-4, 6), (0, 2), (4, -2)

Answers

The coordinates simply have to be plugged into the equation and determine whether the result is 2.
-4 + 6 =  2
0 + 2 = 2
4 + 2 =  6
-4 + -6 = -10 
0 + 2 =  2
4 + 2 = 6
-4 + 6 = 2
0 + 2 = 2
4 + -2 = 2

The solutions (without repeating pairs) are:
(-4, 6), (0, 2), (4, -2)

Answer:

C: (-4, 6), (0, 2), (4, -2)
