Pretty sure it’s “b= p/2 - a” which is the second answer
The area of this square is said to be 576 square inches.
The formula for the area of a square is the length of one side squared.
Let's use l to represent the side length.
This means l^2 = 576.
To find l, find the square root of both sides.
<span>√576 = 24

The length of each side of the square is 24 inches.
But the question is asking for it in feet.
12 inches = 1 foot so 24 inches = 2 feet
This means each side of the square is 2 feet long.
Answer:
2 feet
Answer:
x=0.6241
Step-by-step explanation:
Square both sides and end up with
75.24+x=75.8641
isolate x
x=75.8641 - 75.24
x=0.6241
First, let's see if we can rewrite this word problem a little bit more mathematically. We won't get to mathy or technical so no worries. We just want to look at it in a more straightforward way, if we can.
Train A's mph plus Train B's mph summed equal 723.5 mph. Train A's mph is greater than Train B's mph by 12.5 mph.
So what should we do to solve this problem? Since we are dealing with two of something and we know the value of the two combined, it might make sense to start by dividing that value by 2.
723.5 / 2 = <em /> 361.75. If the two trains were travelling at the same speed, we would be done. Unfortunately, they are not so we need to think about this some more.
Train A is going 12.5 mph faster than Train B. Let's rewrite.
Train A mph = 12.5 + 361.75 = 374.25 Okay, so Train A is travelling at a speed of 374.25 mph. So we're done right? Not exactly. We are asked to fing the speeds of BOTH trains. How do we find the speed of Train B? We have added a portion of the combined total to Train A. It seems to follow, then, we should probably subtract the same portion from Train A. What are we going to do? You guessed it! Rewrite.
Train B mph = 361.75 - 12.5 = 349.25 HA HA! We seem to have figured it out. Let's do one last thing to check our work. Let's add the two trains' speeds together. If we did this right, we should get our summed value of 723.5 mph
374.25 + 349.25 = 723.5
Pat yourself on the back! We did it!
374.25 + 349.25 =
Answer:
189-99=90 (What he needs left)
90/10= 9
so the answer is 9 weeks.
