The perimeter is the total of adding all of the side lengths together.
A square has 4 equal side lengths.
So the perimeter of a square is:
P = s + s + s + s or P = 4s
[P = perimeter s = side lengths of the square]
Since you know the side length of the square is (x + 2 1/4), you can replace s with (x + 2 1/4)
P = 4s
P = 4(x + 2 1/4) Multiply 4 into (x + 2 1/4)
P = 4x + 8 4/4
P = 4x + 9
Since you know the perimeter, you can plug it in.(you could have also plugged it in in the beginning)
P = 4x + 9
14 = 4x + 9 Subtract 9 on both sides
5 = 4x Divide 4 on both sides
5/4 = x
Now that you know x, find the side length of the square.
(x + 2 1/4)
(5/4 + 2 1/4)
2 6/4 = 3 2/4 = 3 1/2 units or 3.5 units
To find the area of a square, you multiply 2 of the sides together:
A = s · s
A = 3.5 · 3.5
A = 12.25 units²
Answer:
The sum of two numbers is 25. One of the numbers exceeds the other by 9. Find numbers
<h3>here</h3>
the other number = x + 9
Let the number be x.
Sum of two numbers = 25
According to question, x + x + 9 = 25
⇒ 2x + 9 = 25
⇒ 2x = 25 - 9
⇒ 2x = 16
⇒ 2x/2 = 16/2
⇒ x = 8
Therefore, x + 9 = 8 + 9 = 17
Therefore, the two numbers are 8 and 17.
Answer:
y = 1/4x or y = 0.25x
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are trying to write an equation with the given points.
To solve this question, we would use the slope formula: y2-y1/x2-x1
Find the slope by plugging in variables:
2-1/8-4
1/4 = m
The slope would be 1/4
Find the y intercept:
To find the y-intercept, you would need to use the slope you've found and one point, and plug it into the slope-intercept equation:
1 = 1/4(4) + b
Solve:
1 = 1/4(4) + b
1 = 1 + b
Subtract 1 from both sides
0 = b
This means that the y-intercept is 0.
Our equation will be: y = 1/4x
Keeping in mind that the area of a rectangle is simply width * length, if we get the area of the larger rectangle, and then
subtract the area of the smaller rectangle, we're in effect making a hole in the larger rectangle's area and thus what's leftover is the shaded area.
Exponential function is characterized by an exponential increase or decrease of the value from one data point to the next by some constant. When you graph an exponential function, it would start by having a very steep slope. As time goes on, the slope decreases until it levels off. The general from of this equation is: y = A×b^x, where A is the initial data point at the start of an event, like an experiment. The term 'b' is the constant of exponential change. This is raised to the power of x, which represents the independent variable, usually time.
So, the hint for you to find is the term 500 right before the term with an exponent. For example, the function would be: y = 500(1.8)^x.
