Answer:

<h2>a. 2,025 ft</h2><h2>b. 8,100 is a perfect square. </h2>

Step-by-step & explanation:

<em>It is a perfect square because if it wasn't, it wouldn't be equally a whole number when divided by 4 or 2,025 exactly on ALL 4 sides and when finding the root of 8,100 it's a perfect 90.  As you should already know a perfect square has a given 90 degree angle.</em>

Tarp = 8,100 sq ft.

- anchored corners at the base.

- Square infield.

Well if there's 4 bases, divide 8,100 by 4.

8,100 / 4 = 2,025

One base to another base is 2,025 ft.

Tom is 4 more than twice Andrews age. Sara is 8 less than 5 times Andrews age. If Tom and Sara are twins, how old is Andrew? Sho
horsena [70]
T = 4 + 2A
S = 5A - 8
T = S
Since T and S are equal, set them against each other
2A + 4 = 5A - 8
Subtract 2A from each side, and add 8 to each side
12 = 3A
Divide each side by 3
A = 4
So Andrew is 4 years old
If Andrew is 4, then Tom is twice that plus 4, or 12. Sarah is 5 times 4 less 8, or 12.

Make q the subject of the formula 2(q+p) = 1+5q. Give your answer in the form ap-b/c where a,b and c are all positive integers
musickatia [10]

Answer:

\frac{2p-1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you want to get q only and q appears in both side of the equation. Try to isolate q to one side.

1) Expand 2(q+p)

2q + 2p = 1 + 5q

2) Move all q terms to one side

5q - 2q = 2p - 1

3q = 2p - 1

3) Divide 3 on both side (to isolate q)

q = \frac{2p-1}{3}

How to find the measure of yz
stira [4]
Use the Law of Sines (sina/A=sinb/B=sinc/C for any triangle)

YZ/sin30=50/sin90

YZ=50sin30   (sin90=1 :P)

YZ=25m

Use the 30,60,90° triangle ratios 1, √3, 2

YZ/1=50/2

YZ=25m

Using the Pythagorean Theorem....

(2*25)^2=YZ^2+(√3*YZ)^2

2500=YZ^2+3YZ^2

2500=4YZ^2

625=YZ^2

25m=YZ
