To square a number means to multiply it by itself. So 9 squared would be:
9x9
Which is
81

Step-by-step explanation:
you just need to have half the amount of seed packets of the number of tomato plants grown
Blinding is part of this, as the participants do not know whether they received the competitor's product.
Answer:
50
Step-by-step explanation:
[15 ÷ 5 • 3 + (2³ – 3)] + [4 • (36 – 3³)]
[3 × 3 + (8 - 3)] + [4 × (36 - 27)]
(9 + 5) + (4 × 9)
14 + 36
50
To find this, turn the word question into an equation.
"One less than" means - 1, which is 1 being subtracted from something.
"half a number" means 1/2x, since 1/2 is half and x is unknown.
"is 12" means = 12, which is something equals 12.
Putting this in order would be 1/2x, then - 1, then = 12.
As an equation, this is 1/2x - 1 = 12.
So the equation is 1/2x - 1 = 12
Now you must find the number by solving this equation.
1/2x - 1 = 12
First, add 1 to both sides.
12 + 1 = 13
1/2x = 13
Now multiply both sides by 2.
This way, x will be isolated since 1/2x • 2 = 1x, and 1x = x.
13 • 2 = 26
x = 26
The number is 26.
