Side of the playground would be : a²+a² = 16²

2a² = 256

a² = 128

a = √128

a = 11.31 m

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Alright let's get started.

Please refer the diagram I have attached.

we have given a square playground whose diagonal is 16m.

Let us assume the side of the square is a.

Now, by applying the Pythagorean theorem we can find the side of the square which is:

$a^2+a^2=16^2$

$2a^2=256$

$a^2=\frac{256}{2}$

$a^2=128$

$a=\sqrt{128}$

$a=11.3$

Hence, the side of the playground is 11.3m. : Answer

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

1c, 5c, 25c and 1 dollar

Step-by-step explanation:

With 4 coins of 1c : 4 cents

4 coins of 5c: 20 cents

4 coins of 25c: 1 dollar

4 coins of 1 dollar: 4 dollars

So, 4c + 20c + 1 dollar + 4 dollars = 5.24 dollars

If a,b,c,d, and e are non negative such that x^6-289x^4-x^2+289=(x-a)(x+b)(x_c)(x+d)(x^2+ex+1), what is the value of a+b+c+d+e?

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

If $X=x^2$ it becomes

$X^3-289X^2-X+289=(X^2-1)(X-289)$

and $289=17^2$

$X^2-1=(X-1)(X+1)=(x^2-1)(x^2+1)=(x+1)(x-1)(x^2+1) \\\\x^2-289=x^2-17^2=(x-17)(x+17)$

So,

$x^6-289x^4-x^2+289=(x^2-1)(x^2+1)(x^2-289)=(x-1)(x+1)(x+17)(x-17)(x^2+1)$

a = 1

b = 1

c = 17

d = 17

e = 0

Then a + b + c + d + e = 36

Thanks

which of the following best describes 4^2/3? a. sq root of 16, b. cube root of 4, c. sq root of four, d. cube root of 16

son4ous [18]

Answer: D) cube root of 16

================================================

Explanation:

The rule we use is

$x^{m/n} = \sqrt[n]{x^m}$

In this case, x = 4, m = 2 and n = 3.

So,

$x^{m/n} = \sqrt[n]{x^m}\\\\\\4^{2/3} = \sqrt[3]{4^2}\\\\\\4^{2/3} = \sqrt[3]{16}\\\\\\$

Showing that the original expression turns into the cube root of 16.

How many 1/8s are there in 3/4

natka813 [3]

Answer:

there are 6/8 in 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

if you want to change the denominator of the fraction, you must find the multiple of it,

(3/4) x 2 is 6/8

so you have 6 x (1/8) thats the same 6/8

3/4 is the minimum simplification, if you want to find the same fraction but with other denominator, you have to multiply 3/4 for any number, to do this you have to multiply the numerator and the denominator
