6cm
Step-by-step explanation:
14
The answer to your problem is that Marisol’s shadow would be 144 feet long
Let's x represents the first odd integer
The next consecutive integer would be represented as x+2.
So x and x+2 being multiplied together will give us 1443:
(x)(x+2)=1443
x^2+2x=1443
x^2+2x-1443=0
By solving the quadratic equation using the quadratic formula, x will equal to 37 and -39.
Since the problem says "integers", so I'm assuming two pairs of consecutive integers would be ok.
With that said you 1st pair will be: 37,39
Your second pair will be: -37,-39.
It works out that: y = 1 or 5 and therefore x = 5 or 1
Answer: 56 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Area of square frame = 196 in²
Area of a square = a²
Where a = side length
Hence side length (a) of the square :
a² = 196
a = √196
a = 14
To find the length of the ribbon required :
Find the perimeter of the square :
Perimeter of a square = 4a
= 4 * 14
= 56 inches
