Find the minimum and maximum possible areas of a rectangle measuring 6 km by 11 km.

1 answer:

3 0

Assuming your numbers are rounded to the nearest km, the minimum area will be ...
(5.5 km)·(10.5 km) = 57.75 km² . . . minimum

And the maximum area will be ...
(6.5 km)·(11.5 km) = 74.75 km² . . . maximum

_____
When a number is rounded to 6 km as the nearest km, its value may actually be anywhere in the range 6 km ± 0.5 km. If you really want to get technical about it, the ranges of possible dimensions are [5.5, 6.5) km and [10.5, 11.5) km, and the range of possible areas is [57.75, 74.75) km².

Consider the expression √(√625).

const2013 [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Square Root - Finding a number that multiplies itself twice into the number within the square root

With this meaning, we need to find a number that multiplies itself into 625.

Finding calculations using exponents will help,

25^2 is equal to 625. Therefore $\sqrt{25}$

We are not finished, as there is another square root right after, empowering the parenthesis, so what number multiplies itself equals 25?

This would be 5, therefore $\sqrt{(\sqrt{625}) }$ is equal to 5.

There are two numbers. the sum of the larger number and three times the smaller number is 14. the larger number is two more than

MatroZZZ [7]

First, you have to give each a variable. In this case, the smaller number will be x and the larger number will be y.

Next, you need to make the equations. Your equations are:
y+3x=14
x+2=y

What you're solving for is y because the questions asks what the larger number is.

Then, substitute. It will be this after substituted:

x+2+3x=14

Combine like terms.

4x+2=14

Subtract by 2 on both sides.

4x=12

Divide by 4 on both sides.

x=3

^This what your smaller number is but you can easily find what y (the larger number) is. Substitute x into the other equation, which is basically adding 2 to 3.

y=5
