the longer side / the shorter side must be the same for rectangles to be similar.
For A: 105 / 80 = 1.32
For B: 120 / 90 = 1.33
For C: 100 / 75 = 1.47
So... only A and B are similar.
16^2 is 16•16 so x would equal 256
Answer:
The number of trees at the begging of the 4-year period was 2560.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let’s say that x is number of trees at the begging of the first year, we know that for four years the number of trees were incised by 1/4 of the number of trees of the preceding year, so at the end of the first year the number of trees was
, and for the next three years we have that
Start End
Second year
-------------- 
Third year
-------------
Fourth year
--------------
So the formula to calculate the number of trees in the fourth year is
we know that all of the trees thrived and there were 6250 at the end of 4 year period, then
⇒
Therefore the number of trees at the begging of the 4-year period was 2560.
Number of solutions: no roots
Type of solution: Not Real
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to identify the number of solutions and their types using the discriminant.
We are given: 
Rearranging:

Discriminant can be found by: 
where b=-40, a=10 and c=41
Putting values:

So, Discriminant is -40
If the discriminant is less than zero i.e -40 then there are no real roots.
So, Number of solutions: no roots
Type of solution: Not Real
Keywords: discriminant
