Let s represent the length of any one side of the original square. The longer side of the resulting rectangle is s + 9 and the shorter side s - 2.
The area of this rectangle is (s+9)(s-2) = 60 in^2.
This is a quadratic equation and can be solved using various methods. Let's rewrite this equation in standard form: s^2 + 7s - 18 = 60, or:
s^2 + 7s - 78 = 0. This factors as follows: (s+13)(s-6)=0, so that s = -13 and s= 6. Discard s = -13, since the side length cannot be negative. Then s = 6, and the area of the original square was 36 in^2.
Answer:
Set 2
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the median of each set (the median being the number in the middle):
(1) { 4,7,10,13,16} = 10
(2) {8,9,10,18,19} = 10
(3) {8,9,10,11,12} = 10
(4) {1,2,10,11, 12} = 10
Then find the mean of each set (the mean being average of all the numbers, to find the average add up all the numbers and divide by the amount of numbers):
(1) { 4,7,10,13,16} = 10
(2) {8,9,10,18,19} = 12.8
(3) {8,9,10,11,12} = 10
(4) {1,2,10,11, 12} = 7.2
the answer being 12.8 since 12.8 is greater than 10
We're going to assume that x = # of days.
Plug 12 in as x:
4 × 12 = 48
48 + 6 = 54
They produced 54 boats in 12 days.
Answer:

Answer:
7.08
Choice A
Step-by-step explanation:
From the right-angled triangle we have been given the following;
One angle - 33 degrees
The hypotenuse - 13 units
We are required to determine the length of the side, opposite the angle, marked x.
Using the Mnemonic; SOHCAHTOA
The sine of an angle is; (opposite side)/(hypotenuse)
Therefore;
sin 33 = x/13
x = 13 * sin 33
x = 7.080
