Question

Answer and working out please!

Answer 1

Answer:

17.0710678119 and 2.92893218813

Step-by-step explanation:

Theoretically, the wire should come out to be x+y=80,

and the sum of the areas of the squares should be (x/4)^2+(y/4)^2=300.

x/4 and y/4 being the length of one side of the square, we would then square that to find the area. The total wire is all x+y=80. X being one part and Y being the other.

Theoretically, using systems. i found the answers: 68.2842712474619,11.715728752538098

Again, these numbers are very large, and I they actually do both add up to each amount basically perfectly. If your teacher is asking for a rounded answer, that would've been helpful to know. But again, theoretically, those are the answers.
