Answer:
The number of cases prior to the increase is 50.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that the number of measles cases increased by 13.6% and the number of cases after increase is 57.
We need to find the number of cases prior to the increase.
Let x be the number of cases prior to the increase.
x + 13.6% of x = 57



Divide both the sides by 1.136.



Therefore the number of cases prior to the increase is 50.
Area=l*b=l*(l-2)=80(given)
so, l^2 - 2l =80
l^2 - 2l - 80=0
l=10 or -8
l=10,b=10-2=8
perimeter=2(l+b)=2(18)=36
So, these are actually pretty simple once you learn the equality used to solve for "x" and when to implement this method. You can use this equality to solve for a segment "x" anytime that two secant lines cutting through a circle come from the same point outside the circle.
Secant: by geometric definition is just a straight line that cuts a curve into multiple pieces.
I did one of them for you hopefully you can use my work for "a" to help you solve for "b".
For a. I got x=7.
