B. 12 ft
C. 40 ft
D. 80 ft.
Is the answer B?
Thanks
They changed up the answers on the test and put 13 as one of the answers. 13 is the correct answer.
Don’t use my answer it’s is incorrect I messed up on the math
kitty but there is 4 sides so no not 80
It is 40 because there are 4 sides with 160 square feet in the model and what does 40 x 4 equal? 160
you never did
Well then what's the rest of them if possible? I have been scouring jiskha and most of the full answers have too many downvotes to be trustworthy.
ill upload them when i am done
been a year and they never did
Area of a square:
A=s^2
You are given the area so:
160=s^2
solve for s
So I agree with your answer.
