The total area of both plots of land is?
VikaD [51]

You have 2x^2 + 9x -9 and 3x^2 -2x +14

To find total area add the two polynomials together by combining the like terms.


2x^2 + 3x^2 = 5x^2

9x + -2x = 9x-2x = 7x

-9 + 14 = 5


Total area = 5x^2 + 7x + 5

The perimeter of a triangle is 140 cm the length of the second side is twice the length of the first side the length of the thir
kykrilka [37]

Perimeter = 140

Side 1 = x

Side 2 = 2x

Side 3 = 3x - 10

x + 2x + 3x - 10 = 140

6x - 10 = 140

6x = 150

x = 25

Side 1 = 25 cm

Side 2 = 50 cm

Side 3 = 65 cm

Hope this helps!! :)

Question 1: find the volume of a cube whose total surface area is 486cm^2
lapo4ka [179]
<h3>The volume of cube is 729 cubic centimeter</h3>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

<em><u>The surface area of cube is given as:</u></em>

Surface\ area = 6a^2

Where, "a" is the length of side of cube

Given that, surface area = 486 square centimeter

486 = 6a^2\\\\a^2 = \frac{486}{6}\\\\a^2 = 81\\\\a = 9

<u><em>Find the volume of cube:</em></u>

volume\ of\ cube = a^3\\\\volume\ of\ cube = 9^3\\\\volume\ of\ cube = 9 \times 9 \times 9\\\\volume\ of\ cube = 729

Thus volume of cube is 729 cubic centimeter

1. Simplify. 5–1(3–2)
konstantin123 [22]

Answer with explanation:

Using following law of indices

1.x^a \times x^b=x^{a+b}\\\\2. (x^m)^n=x^{mn}\\\\ 3. x^{-n}=\frac{1}{x^n}\\\\4. \frac{x^m}{x^n}=x^{m-n}

1.5^{-1}\times 3^{-2}=\frac{1}{5}\times\frac{1}{3^2}\\\\=\frac{1}{5\times9}\\\\=\frac{1}{45}\\\\2. \frac{mn^{-4}}{p^0*q^{-2}}=\frac{mq^2}{n^4}\\\\ 3.0.0042=4.2\times 10^3\\\\4.6.12 \times 10^3=6.12 \times 1000=6120\\\\ 5.0.5 \times(8\times10^5})=\frac{1}{2}\times8 \times 10^5=4\times 10^5\\\\6. (9 \times 10^3)^2=9^2 \times (10^3)^2=81 \times 10^6\\\\7.( \frac{1}{2}a^{-4}\times b^2 )_{a=-2,b=4}{\text{or}}( \frac{1}{2}a^{4}\times b^{-2} )_{a=-2,b=4}=\frac{1}{2}\times (-2)^{-4}\times(4)^2{\text{or}}=\frac{1}{2}\times (-2)^{4}\times(4)^{-2}=\frac{16}{2\times16}=\frac{1}{2}

9. (4\times x\times y^2)^3\times (xy)^5=4^3\times x^3\times (y^2)^3\times x^5 \times y^5\\\\=64\times x^{3+5}\times y^{5+6}\\\\=64x^8y^{11}\\\\10.(2\times t^3)^3(0.4\times r)^2=2^3 \times (t^3)^3\times (0.4)^2 \times r^2=8\times t^9 \times 0.16 \times r^2=1.28r^2t^9

8. A number raised to a negative exponent is negative.

Explaining with the help of few examples

 1.2^{-3}=\frac{1}{2^3}=\frac{1}{8}\\\\ 2.(-3)^{-3}=\frac{1}{(-3)^{3}}=\frac{-1}{27}

Option C: Sometimes

1.Option B

2.Option A

3.Option C

4.Option A

5.Option D

6.  81 \times 10^6

7.Option B

8.Option C

9.Option A
