Since it is a square, all sides are equal.
Divide the 440 by 4 to find the length of each side.
440/4 = 110 yards

A couple of things we need to keep in mind before we determine the sides of the field.
1) The field is square. This is important because a square has four equal sides; not one side can be different with a square.

2) The full perimeter is 440 yards.

Since we know that a square has a perimeter of 440 yards, we can use this information to find the length of each side.
A square has four equal sides, so we can divide 440 by 4 (since the perimeter is all of the sides' lengths added together) and we would have the length of one, and if we have the length of one (the lengths are all equal), we have the length of all four.

As so:

440 / 4 = 110
So, the lengths of the sides are 110. To check if this is true, we can draw a square and input the length of 110 for all four of them.

(I can't draw on here...so we have 4 sides of 110.)

110 + 110 + 110 + 110 = 440!

Now, we know our answer is correct!
Hope I could help you out! If my math is incorrect, or I provided an answer you were not looking for, please let me know! However, if you think my math was explained well, please consider marking my answer as <em>Brainliest! </em>:)

Have a good one.
God bless!

Depth: 1.8 m Width: 2.5 m Height: 2 m What is the cuboid's volume?

8090 [49]

Answer:

9 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating the volume (V) of a cuboid is

V = depth × width × height

= 1.8 × 2.5 × 2 = 9 m³

Please help, I’m very confused

snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

1st picture: (0,4)

The lines intersect at point (0,4).

2nd picture: Graph D

2x ≥ y - 1

2x - 5y ≤ 10

Set these inequalities up in standard form.

y ≤ 2x + 1

-5y ≤ 10 - 2x → y ≥ -2 + 2/5x → y ≥ 2/5x - 2

When you divide by a negative number, you switch the inequality sign.

Now you have:

y ≤ 2x + 1

y ≥ 2/5x - 2

Looking at the graphs, you first want to find the lines that intersect the y-axis at (0, 1) and (0, -2).

In this case, it is all of them.

Next, you would look at the shaded regions.

The first inequality says the values are less than or equal to. So you look for a shaded region below a line. The second inequality says the values are greater than or equal to. So you look for a shaded region above a line.

That would mean Graph B or D.

Then you look at the specific lines. You can see that the lower line is y ≥ 2/5x - 2. You need a shaded region above this line. You can see the above line is y ≤ 2x + 1. You need a shaded region below this line. That is Graph D.

Sin^2(x/2)=sin^2x <br> Find the value of x

Veronika [31]

$\sin^2\dfrac x2=\sin^2x$
$\dfrac{1-\cos x}2=1-\cos^2x$
$1-\cos x=2-2\cos^2x$
$2\cos^2x-\cos x-1=0$
$(2\cos x+1)(\cos x-1)=0$
$\implies\begin{cases}2\cos x+1=0\\\cos x-1=0\end{cases}$ $\implies\begin{cases}\cos x=-\frac12\\\cos x=1\end{cases}$

The first case occurs in $0\le x$ for $x=\dfrac{2\pi}3$ and $x=\dfrac{4\pi}3$ . Extending the domain to account for all real $x$ , we have this happening for $x=\dfrac{2\pi}3+2n\pi$ and $\dfrac{4\pi}3+2n\pi$ , where $n\in\mathbb Z$ .

The second case occurs in $0\le x$ when $x=0$ , and extending to all reals we have $x=2n\pi$ for $n\in\mathbb Z$ , i.e. any even multiple of $\pi$ .
