A rectangle has a width of 10 feet and a length of 40 feet. What is the length of the side of a square with the same area?

1 answer:

3 0

First find the area of the rectangle: 10 * 40 = 400

Now, since the square has the same area, we'll find the side lengths of the square by just finding the square root of 400 which is 20. You can do this with a calculator. So the side length of any side on the square is 20.

There are 53 regular pencils in the box and some colored pencils in the box. There are a total of 84 pencils. How many colored p

vodka [1.7K]

Let be "x" the number of colored pencils in the box.

According to the information given in the exercise, there are 84 pencils in the box and 53 of them are regular pencils.

Knowing this information, you can set up the following equation:

$x+53=84$

Finally, you have to solve for the variable "x" in order to find its value. In order to do this, you can apply the Subtraction property of equality by subtracting 53 from both sides of the equation:

$\begin{gathered} x+53-(53)=84-(53) \\ x=31 \end{gathered}$

The answer is: There are 31 colored pencils in the box.
