What the above statement is saying is:
If the number is 4, find the difference between the square of the number (the number is 4) and the number itself (the number is still 4).
The square of the number is:
The number^2
= 4^2
= 4 × 4
= 16
The difference between the square of the number and the number is:
The number^2 - The number
= 16 - 4
= 12
Hope this helps! :)
Let's create expressions and equations to model this situation. Let Anthony's age be a.
"Jim is 3 times as old as his cousin, Anthony." Jim's age is 3a.
"The difference in their age is 18." 3a - a = 18
How old is Jim?
Let's solve the above equation for a to first find Anthony's age.
3a - a = 18
2a = 18
a = 9
Remember, Jim's age is represented by the expression 3a. Substitute Anthony's age, 9, into the expression to find Jim's age.
3a
3(9)
27
Answer:
Jim is 27 years old.
7√7
using the ' rule of radicals '
• √a × √b ⇔ √ab
simplifying the radicals
√28 = √(4 × 7 ) = √4 × √7 = 2√7
√63 = √(9 × 7) =√9 × √7 = 3√7
√112 = √(16 × 7 ) = √16 × √7 = 4√7
substituting into the expression
3(2√7) - 5(3√7) + 4(4√7) = 6√7 - 15√7 + 16√7 = 7√7
