Area of sandbox = 169 square feet

Area of square with side 'x' is given by the formula = x^2

We have to determine the total length of wood Drew needs to make the sides of the​ sandbox.

Total length of wood required would be equal to perimeter of sandbox.

Let 'a' be the side of the square sandbox.

So, Area of sandbox = 169

a^2 = 169

a = \sqr{169}

a = 13 feet

Total length of wood required to make sides of the sandbox = Perimeter of the square sandbox = 4 \times a

= 4 \times 13

= 52 feet.

Therefore, 52 feet of wood is required to make the sides of the square sandbox.

Manuel noticed that his cellphone bill reflected a monthly fee of
Tomtit [17]

Answer: (total amount paid - $40) / 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Monthly fee = $40

Additional fee = $0.05 per minute on phone

Given the the amount paid for the month is available, number of minutes he was on phone can be determined thus :

Total amount to be paid = monthly fee + additional fee

Additional fee = $0.05 × n

Where n = number of minutes on phone

Hence,

Total amount paid = $40 + $0.05n

If the amount paid is known, the number of minutes on phone can be calculated thus;

(Total amount paid - monthly fee) = $0.05n

n = (Total amount paid - monthly fee) / fee per minute on phone

(total amount paid - $40) / 0.05

Write the quadratic equation whose roots are 5 and -3, and whose leading coefficient is 1
kogti [31]
1. A quadratic equation has the following form: ax²+bx+c.
 
 2. The leading coefficient is the number that is attached to the variable with the highest exponent. Then, the "a" is the leading coefficient of the quadratic equation.
 
 3. The problem says that the leading coefficient is 1 (a=1) and the roots of the quadratic equation are 5 and -3. Then, you have:
 
 (x-5)(x+3)=0
 
 4. When you apply the distributive property, you obtain:
 
 x²+3x-5x-15=0
 x²-2x-15=0
 
 5. Therefore, the answer is:
 
 x²-2x-15=0
