Tameeka is in charge of designing a pennant for spirit week. She wants the base to be 3 and one half feet and the height to be 6 and one half. She has 20 square feet of paper available. Does she have enough paper? explain.
Hello!
You need to calculate the surface of the pennant.
It is a rectangle, so you can use this formula :
\(A = w\times h\)
(w : width ; h : height).
\(A = 3.5 \times 6.5 = 22.75 \text{ square feet}\)
22.75 > 20
Tameeka doesn't have enough paper.
Answer:
22.75 > 20
Tameeka doesn't have enough paper.
