Answer: 46
Step-by-step explanation:
You can simplify this using PEMDAS:
Parentheses
Exponents
Multiplication/division
Addition/subtraction
Move through the steps in that order.
In this case, the first two steps are absent, so multiply first:
20 - 16 + 42
Then, add and subtract:
46.
1) Formula: area = height * base / 2
2) Call x the height:
height = x
base = 2x
3) State the equation:
(x)(2x) = 49 in^2
4) Solve the equation:
2x^2 = 49 in^s
x^2 = (49/2) in^2
x = √(49/2) in
x = 7√2 / 2 in = 3.5 √2 in
5) Solution:
height = 3.5 √2 in and base = 7√2 in
6) Verification: area = (7√2 in) (3.5√2 in) = 49 in^2
Answer: height = 3.5√2 in and base = 7√2 in.
Do the division
(5.685 * 10^26) / (3.302*10^23)
= 1.722 * 10^3
or 1722 times greater
$13.53 is the answer to you problem
