The length of each side of the larger square is 8 cm.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

Step 1 ;

  • The combined area of two squares = 80 sq.cm
  • The side of small square = x
  • The side of larger square = 2x

Step 2 :

Area of the square = a^2

Area of small square + area of large square = 80

x^2 + (2x)^2 = 80

x^2 + 4x^2 = 80

5x^2 = 80

x^2 = 80/5

x^2 = 16

x = ±4

Step 3 :

Since length cannot be negative, the value of x= 4

∴ The length of the side of small square = 4cm

The length of the side of larger square = 2x = 8cm

During the 2005 football season team tackle the team sack by eight points if the combine scores total of 26 find the individual
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Team sack = 9

Team tackle = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

To start with, we'd assume that

Let x = the points scored by Team Sack

Let x + 8 = the points scored by Team Tackle

x + x + 8 = 26

So, go further and solve mathematically

2x + 8 = 26

if we subtract 8 from both sides, we have

2x = 18

Next, we then divide both sides by 2. So that,

x = 18/2

x = 9

Since we assumed the total points for Team Sack to be x, then Team Sack scored 9 points while Team Tackle scored x + 8 points, and that is 17

Points F,G, and H are collinear such that FG:FH=2/3.If a directed line segment begins at F(-3,2) and ends at H (-3,7), find the
Nana76 [90]
We consider the x- and y-coordinates separately. Let the coordinates of G be (x, y). Now considering the x-coordinates:
FG/FH = (x - (-3)) / (-3 - (-3)) = 2/3
x + 3 = (2/3)(6)
x = 1
For the y-coordinates:
FG/FH = (y - 2) / (7 - 2) = 2/3
y - 2 = (2/3)(5)
y = 16/3
Therefore the coordinates of G are (1, 16/3).

Write the explicit formula for the geometric sequence 2, 8, 32, 128
Alja [10]
The first term, a, is 2.  The common ratio, r, is 4.  Thus,

a_(n+1) = 2(4)^(n).

Check:  What's the first term?  Let n=1.  Then we get 2(4)^1, or 8.  Is that correct?  No.

Try this instead:

a_(n) = a_0*4^(n-1).  Is this correct?    Seeking the first term (n=1), does this formula produce 2?      2*4^0 = 2*1 = 2.  YES.

The desired explicit formula is   a_(n) = a_0*4^(n-1), where n begins at 1.
