Mathematics
1 answer:
Rama09 [41]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

\frac{(a-b)^2+b^2}{a^{2}}

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

The area of the square is

A=x^{2}

where

x is the length side of the square

step 1

Find the area of the outer square (A_o)

we have that

x=a\ units

substitute in the formula

A_o=a^{2}\ units^2

step 2

Find the area of the inner square (A_i)

we know that

The length side of the inner square is equal to the hypotenuse of a right triangle

so

Applying Pythagoras theorem

x^{2}=(a-b)^2+b^2

Remember that

A_i=x^2

so

A_i=(a-b)^2+b^2

step 3

Find the ratio of the area of the inner square to the area of the outer

ratio=\frac{A_i}{A_o}

substitute the values

ratio=\frac{(a-b)^2+b^2}{a^{2}}

Jean can pack 5 cartons in 15 minutes. Which expression can be used to show the number of cartons Jean can pack in x hours? Grou
nadezda [96]

Answer: 20x

Step-by-step explanation:

First we should note that 60 minutes = 1 hour. Therefore, 15 minutes = 15/60 = 1/4 hour

Since Jean can pack 5 cartons in 1/4 hours, the number of carton that he can pack in one hour will be:

= 5 ÷ 1/4

= 5 × 4

= 20 cartons.

Therefore, to get the number of cartons that Jean can pack in x hours, we will multiply 20 by x. This will be:

= 20 × x

= 20x

An online furniture store sells chairs for $200 each and tables for $600 each. Every
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

If the minimum 13 chair were sold , then the minimum number of Table sold is 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The cost of each chair = $ 200

The cost of each table = $ 600

The total number of furniture sold per day = 32

The minimum amount of selling per day = $ 12000

Let the total number of chair = C

The total number of table = T

So , according to question

C + T = 32         .......1

200 C + 600 T = 12000         .......2

Solving eq 1 and 2

200 C + 600 T = 12000

200 × ( C + T ) = 32 × 200

I.e 200 C + 200 T = 6400

or, ( 200 C + 600 T ) - ( 200 C + 200 T ) = 12,000 - 6400

Or, 400 T =  5600

∴  T =

I.e T = 14

Put The value of T in eq 2

So, 200 C + 600 × 14 = 12000

or , 200 C + 8400 = 12,000

Or, 200 C = 12000 - 8400

Or, 200 C = 3600

∴   C =

I.e C = 18

The number of chair sold is 18

If the number of chair sold is 13 ,

Then the min number of table sold = 200 × 18 + 600 T = 12000

i.e 600 T = 12000 - 3600

or, 600 T = 8400

∴   T =

I.e T = 14

Hence if the minimum 13 chair were sold , then the minimum number of Table sold is 14 . Answer
