Mathematics

Answer:

12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the side length is a length, it will be positive and not negative, so we solve this equation for s by taking the positive square root of both sides of the equation. We get that s = 12, so the side length of a square with an area of 144 square feet is 12 feet.While -12 is "a square root" of 144, the square root operation here denotes a function from nonnegative real numbers to nonnegative real numbers. A function can only produce a single result. So the expression √144 evaluates to the positive root 12.Because one square foot is 144 square inches, divide the total number of square inches by 144.

Hope that was helpful.Thank you!!!

Ashley’s Phone bill went from 32.25 to 18.70 what was the percent of decrease? Plz help a little confused...plz explain how you
Kruka [31]

Answer:

42%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the percent of decrease first find the difference between 32.25 and 18.70.

32.25 - 18.70 = 13.55

Now divide this number by the original number, in this case 32.25, and then multiply the answer you get by 100.

13.55 / 32.25 = 0.42

Multiply this number by 100 to get the percentage.

0.42 * 100 = 42

Write kkkkknn in exponenential form
horrorfan [7]
I count five 'k's there, so that part of the expression is

                                     k⁵  .

Two 'n's form the rest of it, so that part is  n² .

The parts are multiplied, so the simplest form of the expression is

                                     k⁵ n²  .
