Question

the area of a square garage is 121 square feet. will it fit a car that measures 13 feet long? explain. since the length of each side of the garage is feet, which is the length of the car, the car in the garage.

Explanation:

Step1: Find side - length of square garage

Let the side - length of the square garage be $s$. The area formula for a square is $A = s^{2}$. Given $A = 121$ square feet, we solve for $s$: $s=\sqrt{A}=\sqrt{121}=11$ feet.

Step2: Compare side - length with car length

The length of the car is 13 feet. Since $11<13$.

Answer:

Since the length of each side of the garage is 11 feet, which is less than the length of the car, the car will not fit in the garage. So the answers are: 11, less than, will not fit.
