Aconcrete patio is 5 2/3 feet wide. it has an area of 36 5/6 square feet. is the concrete slab long enough to fit a 7 foot picnic table without placing the table along the diagonal of the patio? explain

The concrete slab is not long enough to fit the picnic table.

The concrete patio is in the shape of a rectangle. A rectangle is an object that has four sides. The diagonal is the length from angle of the rectangle to the other angle of the rectangle.

The area of a rectangle = length x width

length = area / width

÷

Convert to improper fractions

÷

x =

length = 6.50 feet

The length of the patio is less than the length of the picnic table.

No

Step-by-step explanation:

W are given that a concrete patio is feet wide

and area of of concrete patio is

We have to find out the length of concrete slab is 7 foot or not.

We know that area of rectangle =

Let length of concrete patio =x foot

Breadth of concrete patio = feet

Area of concrete patio =

Using formula

foot=6.5 foot

Hence, length of concrete slab is 6.5 foot not 7 foot.Therefore, 7 foot picnic table will no fit.

when a figure, such as triangle (xyz) is reflected over the line y = x to create x'y'z' the x-coordinates and y-coordinates of the original image (pre-image) will be reversed for the image. (e.g., (x, y) > (y, x)) this means that the pre-image position of the x- and y-coordinates switch places which in turn provides a mirror like image of the original xyz.  

i notice that when i draw a line segment from x to x', that the points are parallel from each other -- they are exactly across from each other and do not intersect with any other points.  

yes, think i would see the same characteristic if you drew the line segment connecting y with the reflecting line and then y' with the reflecting line because of the essence of reflections. because it is a mirror image, each point was effected the same way which leads me to conclude that they same would apply to y and y'.
