1. To find the figure that best models 6^2, we need to square the number 6. This means multiplying 6 by itself.
Option A: A 6x6 grid would have 6 rows and 6 columns, which equals 36 squares. This is not the correct answer because 6^2 is not equal to 36.
Option B: A 9x4 grid would have 9 rows and 4 columns, which equals 36 squares. This is not the correct answer because 6^2 is not equal to 36.
Option C: A 5x5 grid would have 5 rows and 5 columns, which equals 25 squares. This is the correct answer because 6^2 is equal to 25.
Option D: A 6x2 grid would have 6 rows and 2 columns, which equals 12 squares. This is not the correct answer because 6^2 is not equal to 12.
Therefore, the correct answer is C. A 5x5 grid best models 6^2.
2. To determine how many birds Allen identified, we need to follow the information given in the question.
Ned identified 8 birds.
Sara identified 3 times the number of birds Ned identified, which is 3 * 8 = 24 birds.
Allen identified 3 fewer birds than Sara, which is 24 - 3 = 21 birds.
Therefore, Allen identified 21 birds.
The correct answer is B. Allen identified 21 birds.
3. To find the total number of seats in Bailey's Banquet Hall, we need to calculate the sum of all the seats from the tables given.
There are 16 tables that seat 8 people each, so these tables would have a total of 16 * 8 = 128 seats.
There is also 1 table that seats 12 people.
So, the total number of seats in the banquet hall is 128 + 12 = 140.
The correct answer is D. The banquet hall has 140 seats.
