First we need to find out the area of the square. Since 1/2 of the square( the triangle) is .32 square units, multiply .32 by 2 to find the area.

.32*2=64

Now, find the square root of .64

The square root of .64 is .8.

The side length of the original square is .8 units.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

0.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say s is the side length of the square.  When the square is cut diagonally, each triangle has a base of s and a height of s.

Area of a triangle is:

A = ½ bh

Given A = 0.32, b = s, and h = s:

0.32 = ½ (s)(s)

0.64 = s²

s = 0.8

The side length of the square is 0.8 units.

Answer:

  arithmetic; common difference of 5

Step-by-step explanation:

It usually works well to check differences first. Here, they are ...

  8 -3 = 5

  13 -8 = 5

These are the same value, so the sequence is arithmetic with a common difference of 5.

Jenny made $315.25 for 8 hours of work. How much would Jenny make for 40 hours of work
bagirrra123 [75]
If Jenny made $315.25 for 8 hours of work:

Then it means that she made:
$312.25/8 hours = $39.41 per hour.

If Jenny works for 40 hours, then she will make:

40 hours × $39.41 = $1,576.25

Area of rectangle : A = LW

19. A = 3p^4 * p^2 = 3p^6 (when multiplying exponents with the same base, u add the exponents)

20. A = 7z^5 * 6z^3 = 42z^8 (because 7 x 6 = 42, and z^5 * z^3 = z^8)

How is graphing a two variable inequality similar to graphing a one variable inequality on the number line?
NISA [10]
There are several ways that it is similar. 

1) You still shade on the parts that satisfy the inequality (even though it is 2 dimensional instead of 1. 

2) You still need to show whether or not it is "greater than" or "greater than or equal to". On a line graph you use an open or closed dot, on a graph you use a dotted or solid line.
