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

IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Order of Operations was aught at a younger age for those just grasping the idea of multiplication and division. Exposing PEMDAS at a young age would confuse them too much, hence the order of operation groups, addition/subtraction and multiplication/division. So for the second example problem, PEMDAS would be correct because it does involve you to use parentheses as well as exponents to solve for. Very easy to mix up between order of operations and PEMDAS, but just look at it as if Order of operations is a beginner level of PEMDAS.

Q ,# 18 help to resolve please
Sati [7]
Answer: 120

"A analog clock is diveded up into 12 sectors, based on the numbers 1-12. one sector represents 30 degrees (360/12=30). if the hour hand is directly on the 10, and the minute hand is on the 2, that means there are 4 sectors of 30 degree between then, thus they are 120 degree apart (30*4=120)."
