Distribute to every term inside the parentheses.
Simplify with multiplication.
You can't simplify further by adding, so leave the answer as-is.

Answer:
If both sides are integers, one side will be 4 feet and the other will be 6 feet. The other solution is the symmetrical solution (4 feet instead of 6 feet, and 6 feet instead of 4 feet).
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a rectangular blanket, that has a diagonal that measures h=7.21 feet.
The two sides of the rectangle a and b can be related to the diagonal h by the Pithagorean theorem:
Then, we can express one side in function of the other as:
Then, if we define b, we get the value of a that satisfies the equation.
A graph of values of a and b is attached.
If both side a and b are integers, we can see in the graph that are only two solutions: (b=4, a=6) and (a=4, b=6).
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x is the number of years. y is the population after x years.
Each year, the population decreases by 22%, since 100% - 22% = 78%, and 78% = 0.78, each year, the population is 0.78 of the previous year's population.
year zero: y = 300
year 1: y = 300 * 0.78 = 300 * (0.78)^1
year 2: y = (300 * 0.78) * 0.78 = 300 * (0.78)^2
year 3: y = ((300 * 0.78) * 0.78) * 0.78 = 300 * (0.78)^3
year x: y = 300(0.78)^x
