Areesh is trying to build a box fort. He has 8 feet of duct tape. The instructions are to use 22.5 inches of the tape to secure the roof of the box fort. Then, the remaining
tape should be cut into 5 1/4 - inch sections to be used on the walls of the box fort. Areesh will use all of the duct tape as instructed.
Determine the number of 5 1/4 -inch sections of tape Areesh can cut.

24

step-by-step explanation:

hi there!

the answer to this question is d: 35

step-by-step explanation:

5 to the power of 2 is 25

2 multiplied by 5 is 10

then you add the 2 numbers and you get 35

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.

so, converting firstly the mixed fractions to improper fractions and then "adding".
