Answer:

Once you simplify the given expression, your answer will be 9n² - 12mn + 4m

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we are given an expression.

(3n - 2m)²

when an expression or equation is raised to the power of 2, then you are going to multiply the base term by itself. For example, if you have 2² or 16², then would you do 2 × 2 and 16 × 16 in order to solve the expressions. We will do the same for this expression.

(3n - 2m)² = (3n - 2m) × (3n - 2m)

We will use the foil method to solve this expression

(3n - 2m)(3n - 2m)

9n² - 6mn - 6mn + 4m

Combine like terms together.

9n² - 12mn + 4m

So, the simplified form of the expression is 9n² - 12mn + 4m

Answer:

9n² - 12mn + 4m²

Step-by-step explanation:

(a+b)² = a² + 2ab + b²

(3n - 2m )² = (3n-2m)(3n-2m) = 3n*3n + 3n*-2m -2m*3n - 2m*-2m

= 9n² - 6nm -6mn + 4m²

= 9n² - 12mn + 4n²

★ Sanya has a piece of land which is in the shape of a rhombus.

★ She wants her one daughter and one son to work on the land and produce different crops, for which she divides the land in two equal parts.

★ Perimeter of land = 400 m.

★ One of the diagonal = 160 m.

${\large{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{To \: Find :}}}}}}$

★ Area each of them [son and daughter] will get.

${\large{\textsf{\textbf{\underline{\underline{Solution :}}}}}}$

Let, ABCD be the rhombus shaped field and each side of the field be $x$

[ All sides of the rhombus are equal, therefore we will let the each side of the field be $x$ ]

Now,

• Perimeter = 400m

$\longrightarrow \tt AB+BC+CD+AD=400m$

$\longrightarrow \tt x + x + x + x=400$

$\longrightarrow \tt 4x=400$

$\longrightarrow \tt \: x = \dfrac{400}{4}$

$\longrightarrow \tt x= \red{100m}$

$\therefore$ Each side of the field = 100m.

Now, we have to find the area each [son and daughter] will get.

So, For $\triangle$ ABD,

Here,

• a = 100 [AB]

• b = 100 [AD]

• c = 160 [BD]

$\therefore \tt Simi \: perimeter \: [S] = \boxed{ \sf \dfrac{a + b + c}{2} }$

$\longrightarrow \tt S = \dfrac{100 + 100 + 160}{2}$

$\longrightarrow \tt S = \cancel{ \dfrac{360}{2}}$

$\longrightarrow \tt S = 180m$

Using herons formula,

$\star \tt Area \: of \: \triangle = \boxed{\bf{{ \sqrt{s(s - a)(s - b)(s - c) } }}} \star$

where

• s is the simi perimeter = 180m

• a, b and c are sides of the triangle which are 100m, 100m and 160m respectively.

Putting the values,

$\longrightarrow \tt Area_{ ( \triangle \: ABD)} = \tt \sqrt{180(180 - 100)(180 - 100)(180 - 160) }$

$\longrightarrow \tt Area_{ ( \triangle \: ABD)} = \tt \sqrt{180(80)(80)(20) }$

$\longrightarrow \tt Area_{ ( \triangle \: ABD)} = \tt \sqrt{180 \times 80 \times 80 \times 20 }$

$\longrightarrow \tt Area_{ ( \triangle \: ABD)} = \tt \sqrt{9 \times 20 \times 20 \times 80 \times 80}$

$\longrightarrow \tt Area_{ ( \triangle \: ABD)} = \tt \sqrt{ {3}^{2} \times {20}^{2} \times {80}^{2} }$

$\longrightarrow \tt Area_{ ( \triangle \: ABD)} = 3 \times 20 \times 80$

$\longrightarrow \tt Area_{ ( \triangle \: ABD)} = \red{ 4800 \: {m}^{2} }$

Thus, area of $\triangle$ ABD = 4800 m²

As both the triangles have same sides

So,

Area of $\triangle$ BCD = 4800 m²

Therefore, area each of them [son and daughter] will get = 4800 m²

A skier is trying to decide whether or not to buy a season ski pass. A daily pass costs $65. A season pass costs $400. The skier

Vlad [161]

Let x be the number of days.

Daily pass:
65x + 30x
95x

Season pass:
400 + 30x

95x > 400 + 30x
65x > 400
x > 6.15

The number of days can't be 6.15, so you must round. You can't go down because then the price will be more expensive, so you have to round up.

It would take 7 days until the season pass is less expensive than the daily pass.
----------------------
You can check this by plugging in the x.

95x > 400 + 30x
95(7) > 400 + 30(7)
665 > 400 + 210
665 > 600
The daily pass is more expensive than the season pass.
