) A basketball court is 94 feet by 50 feet. Eight fans can fit next to each other in a 3 ft. by 3 ft. area. How
many kids would you estimate can fit side by side
over the entire floor?

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the basket ball court = Length * Breadth (since it is rectangular in nature)

Area of the basket ball court = 94 feet * 50 feet

Area of the basket ball court = 4700ft²

Area of the space covered by 8 kids = 3ft * 3ft = 9ft²

To know the number of kids that would fit the entire floor, we will use the expression;

Number of kids in the floor = 8*Area of the basket ball court /Area of the space covered by 8 kids = 8*4700/9

= 8*4700/9

= 8*522.22

≈ 4,178 kids

Hence approximately 4,178 kids can fit side by side  over the entire floor

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
