Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Each of the squares has trinomials that factor. x^2 - 14x + 49 = (x - 7)^2
When you take the square root (to get the side length) you get x - 7. So the length of each square is x - 7) = 0;..........x=7 That's the answer to a.
The answer to b is the same. The width =7
It's a square both sides have to be equal.
The length of the rectangle when the two squares are put together is 7 +7 = 14.
Answer: Question a = 7..... Question b = 7 ......... Question C = 14
= 2a - 1
2(
) = 2(2a - 1) <em>multiplied both sides by 2 </em>
ab = 4a - 2 <em>distributed the 2 on the right side</em>
ab - 4a = -2 <em>subtracted 4a from both sides</em>
a(b - 4) = -2 factored out "a" from the left side
a =
<em>divided (b - 4) on both sides</em>
Answer: a =
No 1.2 x 2.6 doesn't equal 31.2 it equals 3.12
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to convert these words into mathematical expressions:
- "Twenty-two less than a number"; "less than" indicates that we need to use subtraction, and since it's "twenty-two less than", we have: -22. Let's say the "number" is q. Then, we have -22 of q, which is q - 22.
- "is twenty-four"; "is" in math always means "equal", so we need an equal sign with 24 next to it: = 24
Put this altogether:
q - 22 = 24
The answer is thus D.
