  1. Order of Operation Application Problems

  2. A landscaper is building hexagonal gardens of various sizes with a border of boards. The hexagons are regular (all sides are the same, all angles are the same). The size of the garden is based on the distance (x ) in feet from a side to the center of the garden. Each side is thus x . One (1) foot is added to this length to allow for overlap. a) Determine the expression in terms of x that will express the length of boards needed to complete a garden. b) Determine the number of feet of board needed to frame a garden when x = 9. x

  3. Farmer Joe is building water holding cells for his pigs. He will form cubes from square boards with a length of x (in inches). However because the boards will overlap the volume inside will be reduced. He must subtract two (2) inches from each board length. To find the volume of water to supply to each cell Joe will add 25 cubic inches to the volume of the cell for spillage. Joe wants to have 12 cells, all of the same size. a) Determine the expression in terms of x that will determine the volume of water needed for all of Joe’s cells. b) Find the volume of water needed if Joe decides to use square boards that are 72 inches on a side to build the cells.
