Part A:How many long is each side of Diego hexagon? Write an equation to model your work
Part b:The total cost of supplies to paint the mural is $38.70. Diego and 9 friends divide the cost equally. How much does each person get???

Respuesta :

Answer:

Part A: 6a = 10.5 and a = 1.75 meters.

Part B: $3.87.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: Diego draws a hexagon with a perimeter of 10.5 meters and each side of the hexagon is the same length.

Now, the hexagon has 6 sides and if each side is of length 'a' meters, then the equation that models the situation is  

6a = 10.5 ......... (1) (Answer)

⇒ a = 1.75 meters. (Answer)

Part B:

The total cost of supplies to paint the mural is $38.70. Diego and 9 friends divide the cost equally.

Hence, the total cost will be divided into 10 persons.

Therefore, each person will get [tex]\frac{38.70}{10} = 3.87[/tex] dollars. (Answer)
