The area of a square is 32 more than its perimeter. find the length of a side.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Eva8 [605]2 years ago
6 0

Answer:

<em>The length of a side of the square is 8 unit.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the length of a side of the square is a unit.

<u>Formula for perimeter of square</u>:  P=4(side) = 4a

<u>Formula for area of square</u>:   A=(side)^2 = a^2

Given that, the area is 32 more than the perimeter. So, the equation will be......

a^2= 4a+32

Moving all terms to the left side, we will get.....

a^2-4a-32=0

Now, factoring out the left side.......

a^2-8a+4a-32=0\\ \\ a(a-8)+4(a-8)=0\\ \\ (a-8)(a+4)=0

<u>Using 'zero-product property'</u>, we will get......

a-8=0\\ a=8\\ \\ and\\ \\ a+4=0\\ a=-4

<em>(Negative value is ignored as the side length can't be in negative)</em>

So, the length of a side of the square is 8 unit.

The number of miles Ford trucks can go on one tank of gas is normally distributed with a mean of 350 miles and a standard deviat
kati45 [8]

Answer:

The probability that a randomly chosen Ford truck runs out of gas before it has gone 325 miles is 0.0062.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let <em>X</em> = the number of miles Ford trucks can go on one tank of gas.

The random variable <em>X</em> is normally distributed with mean, <em>μ</em> = 350 miles and standard deviation, <em>σ</em> = 10 miles.

If the Ford truck runs out of gas before it has gone 325 miles it implies that the truck has traveled less than 325 miles.

Compute the value of P (X < 325) as follows:

P(X

Thus, the probability that a randomly chosen Ford truck runs out of gas before it has gone 325 miles is 0.0062.

pychu [463]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

our triangle has one length:     3.76+1.7=5.46

                           another side: 1.36+1.1=2.46

                            last side:        7.1+5.1=12.20

Perimeter is=5.46+2.46+12.20=20.12 cm
