How many square feet of outdoor carpet will need for this hole?

4 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We can see that the dimensions of the hole in the carpet are 2ft by  2ft. All we have to do is find the area of that shape. Since the two side lengths are the same, and the shape appears to have 4 right angles in each of its corners, we can deduce that the shape is a square. We know that the area of a square can be found by multiplying the length and width measurements of the shape:

2ft * 2ft

= 4 ft²

i just took the test, the correct answer is .. 31.5 in.

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
