Answer:
Part A:
We are given that E is 3 more than D. This means that to get the value of E, we will simply add 3 to the value of D
Therefore:
E = D + 3
Part B:
We are given that F is 5 less than D. This means that to get the value of F, we will simply subtract 5 from the value of D
Therefore:
F = D - 5
Part C:
To get the value of E-F, we will simply subtract the equation we obtained from part B from the equation we obtained from part A
Therefore:
E - F = (D+3) - (D-5)
E - F = D + 3 - D + 5
E - F = 8
Hope this helps :)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
(a is size of side of triangle)
the perimeter of equilateral triangle =3a
or, 36=3a
Thus, a = 13cm
area of equilateral triangle
=√3/4*(a^2 )
=√3/4*(13^2)
=73cm^2
I'm assuming you meant to write a^4 = 625.
If that is the case, then note how 625 = 25^2, and how a^4 is the same as (a^2)^2
So we go from this
a^4 = 625
to this
(a^2)^2 = 25^2
Apply the square root to both sides and you'll end up with: a^2 = 25
From here, apply the square root again to end up with the final answer: a = 5 or a = -5
As a check:
a^4 = (-5)^4 = (-5)*(-5)*(-5)*(-5) = 25*25 = 625
a^4 = (5)^4 = (5)*(5)*(5)*(5) = 25*25 = 625
Both values of 'a' work out
