To find the ratio of the areas, we are obviously going to first need to find the areas of the inner and outer squares. The outer square has a side length of a because we are a units away from 0 on the x-axis. Thus, the area of the outer square is a^2.


We can see that a right triangle is formed by part of the x-axis, part of the y-axis, and the side of the inner square. Thus, we can find the length of the inner square through the Pythagorean Theorem, which is a^2 + b^2 = c^2, where a and b are the legs of the right triangle and c is the hypotenuse. The lengths of the legs of the right triangle in the picture are (a - b) and b. We can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the other side length.

(a - b)^2 + b^2 = c^2

c = \sqrt{(a - b)^2 + b^2}


We have now found that the side length of the inner square is \sqrt{(a -b)^2 + b^2}. Thus, the area of the inner square is (a - b)^2 + b^2.


Using the two areas we just found, we can say that the ratio of the area of the inner square to the area of the outer square is \dfrac{(a - b)^2 + b^2}{a^2}, or choice A.

PLEASE HELP! Find the distance between each pair of points. Round your answers to the nearest tenth.
strojnjashka [21]
A.
Distance = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2+(y_2 - y_1)^2}\\\\  = \sqrt{\left( -4 - \left( -5 \right) \right)^2 + \left( -2 - \left( -3 \right) \right)^2} \\ \\  = \sqrt{ 1 + 1} \\ \\ = \sqrt{ 2 }

b. 
Distance = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2+(y_2 - y_1)^2}\\\\ = \sqrt{\left( -4 - \frac{ 7 }{ 2 } \right)^2 + \left( \frac{ 5 }{ 2 } - 1 \right)^2} \\  \\= \sqrt{ \frac{ 225 }{ 4 } + \frac{ 9 }{ 4 }} \\ \\=  3 \frac{\sqrt{ 26 }}{ 2 }

Make w the subject of the formula y - aw = 2w - 1
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

w=\frac{y+1}{a-2} (a\neq 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y - aw=2w-1\\y-aw-2w=-1\\-aw-2w=-1-y\\-w(a-2)=-(y+1)\\w(a-2)=y+1\\w=\frac{y+1}{a-2} (a\neq 2)

Hope this helps!
