Answer:

Part 15) Asia is [tex]1\frac{14}{29}[/tex] times greater than Africa

Part 16) [tex]\$469[/tex]

Part 17) [tex]\$3,060[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 15)

Let

x------> Asia's area

y-----> Africa's area

we have

[tex]x=17,200,000\ mi^{2}[/tex]

[tex]y=11,600,000\ mi^{2}[/tex]

Divide x by y

[tex]\frac{x}{y} =\frac{17,200,000}{11,600,000}=\frac{43}{29}=\frac{29}{29}+\frac{14}{29}=1\frac{14}{29}[/tex]

therefore

Asia is [tex]1\frac{14}{29}[/tex] times greater than Africa

Part 16)

Let

x----> amount of money remained in the account

we know that

[tex]x=\$1,679-(\$625+\$546+\$39)=\$469[/tex]

Part 17)

step 1

Find the area of the hallway

[tex]A=18*17=306\ ft^{2}[/tex]

step 2

To find the cost multiply the total area by [tex]10\frac{\$}{ft^{2}}[/tex]

so

[tex]306\ ft^{2}*10\frac{\$}{ft^{2}}=\$3,060[/tex]
