Questions 15-16

15. order the following numbers from the least to greatest: 7, SQRT 46, 5.8, SQRT 27, 6.3

A) SQRT 27 < 5.8 < 6.3 < SQRT 46 < 7

16. Fitness centre will install a square hot tub in a 6 m x 6 m room. They want the tub to fill no more than 75% of the room's area.

A) What is the maximum area of the hot tub?

Area of a square = LxL
= 6 m x 6 m
= 36 m^2

Area of the hot tub :(75/100)(36) = 27 m^2

B) What dimensions, to a tenth of a meter, will the fitness centre order from the manufacturer?
Explain.

They want the hot tub to fill no more than 75% of the room.

so 75% of the room is : (75/100)(36)= 27 m^2

The dimensions are SQRT 27 = 5.196m

L = 5.1 m
L = 5.1 m

  1. Good Job Mussie. Your post is okay. Just add colors, pictures, a video and a link. I think for the area of square its s times s not l times l.
