The perimeter is 36 yd.
We set up a proportion to represent this situation. We know that the ratio of the side to the perimeter is the same for every square. This means that the ratio of the first square, 2/8 is the same for the second one. We know that the side length is 9, which gives us:
2/8 = 9/x
Cross multiply:
2*x = 8*9
2x = 72
Divide both sides by 2:
2x/2 = 72/2
x = 36
20 because you need to take the number and if its over 5 you go up but if its under 5 you go down
Answer:
base times height
Step-by-step explanation:
Lets say its a cube with a length of 6, a width of 6, and a height of 6. I would find the base first by multiplying the width times length, which you probably know how to do. The base would be 36, then I would multiply it by the height which is six which would be 216.
Let a = x^2 and b=y^2
a-b=7
4a+b=73
4(7+b)+b=73 5b=45 b=9
a=7+b = 7+9 = 16
Then
x^2=16, x=+-4
y^2=9, y=+-3
