Lets represent the side of the square as s , since we know the area is 36. write s
the square root of 36 is 6. So, we know the side is 6. The formula for perimeter is P= s+s+s+s , but since it is a square and all the sides are equal, for a perimeter of a square you can do p= 4s , now substitute 6 for s to get 4(6)=24 so the perimeter of a square would be 24 inches
The other number is -3.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; First we develop formulae for the given information. A number is added with 3 and the resulting sum is multiplied by 4. This number is then divided by 2 and the quotient is 0. Assume the unknown number is x, then the given information is as follows
The quotient of is 0. So
= 0.
Step 2; Now we solve the above equation. The denominator is taken to the RHS and the RHS remains zero.
= 0, 4(x+3)= 0, 4x+ 12 = 0, 4x = -12, x =
= -3.
So the other number is -3.
