A football player rushed 120 yards. Which measurment represents the same measurments?
IN what feet or inches.
its on feet
It is 120 time 3 and that is 360 feet.
thanks
You are welcome
120 yards in feet: 1 yard = 3 feet 120 yards * (3 feet / 1 yard) = 360 feet notice that the yards cancel out. If you write the conversion incorrectly, the units do not cancel correctly and you have a clue that you've multiplied where you should have divided, or not applied enough conversion factors, etc.
Rashelle bought a square picture frame to hang on her wall that covers one hundred twenty-one inches squared of wall area. What is the side length of the picture frame?
help?
It is 11 inches
Area of a square or rectangle is given by \[A = l*w\] You have A = 121 sq inches, and length = width \[121 \text{ in}^2 = w^2\]Take square of both sides \[\sqrt{121 \text{ in}^2} = w = 11 \text{ in}\]
make that "take square root"
