Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(a - b)² = a² + 2ab + b²
Area of square frame =side²
= (2b - 1)²
= (2b)² - 2*2b * 1 + 1²
= 4b² - 4b + 1
Answer:
40 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the height of water in a pool decreased 5 inches per week.
This means that we can form the equation 
, since the amount of water remaining is proportionate to the amount of weeks that have passed.
We know 
, since we need to find the change for 8 weeks.
The change will be the absolute value of -40, which just makes it positive, so 40.
Hope this helped!
A repeating decimal (rational ends, irrational doesnt)
If the problem says "space", that usually means that they are talking about volume. The maximum length the box can be is 8.4 inches. To find volume, you do length * width * height. You know the length and height, as well as the volume. You can replace the width with "x". Your equation should be:
11.5 * 8.4 * x = 272.8
Then you can just solve for x by dividing both sides by (11.5 * 8.4). The answer should be about 2.82 inches.
