Problem:
The area of the patio of a relative's house is 20 square meters.
The width of the patio is 2 meters.
What is the length of the patio?
Solution:
The area is:
A = (w) * (l)
Where,
w: width
l: long
Clearing l we have:
l = A / w
Substituting values:
l = 20/2
l = 10 meters
First simplify the square root of 1/25
-√1/25
Rewrite using the quote by rule for radicals.
-√1/√25
Any root of 1 is 1
-1/√25
Simplify the denominator. (find the square root of 25)
-1/5
The result can be shown in both exact and decimal forms.
Exact form: -1/5
Decimal form: -0.2
Y should equal 4 because if you have 10/4 then divide the fraction by 2 then it gives you 5/2
