Well this is simple a calculator type problem...but if you are curious as the the algorithm used by simple calculators and such...
They use a Newtonian approximation until it surpasses the precision level of the calculator or computer program..
A newtonian approximation is an interative process that gets closer and closer to the actual answer to any mathematical problem...it is of the form:
x-(f(x)/(df/dx))
In a square root problem you wish to know:
x=√n where x is the root and n is the number
x^2=n
x^2-n=0
So f(x)=x^2-n and df/dx=2x so using the definition of the newton approximation you have:
x-((x^2-n)/(2x)) which simplifies further to:
(2x^2-x^2+n)/(2x)
(x^2+n)/(2x), where you can choose any starting value of x that you desire (though convergence to an exact (if possible) solution will be swifter the closer xi is to the actual value x)
In this case the number, n=95.54, so a decent starting value for x would be 10.
Using this initial x in (x^2+95.54)/(2x) will result in the following iterative sequence of x.
10, 9.777, 9.774457, 9.7744565, 9.7744565066299210578124802523397
The calculator result for my calc is: 9.7744565066299210578124802523381
So you see how accurate the newton method is in just a few iterations. :P
Answer:
30
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem can be done without the Distance Formula (which is a way to find the distance between any two points in the plane).
The attached image shows the points and segments joining them.
PQ = 5 because the points are on the same horizontal line, and you can count spaces between them (or subtract x-coordinates: 4 - (-1) = 5).
PR = 12 because the points are on the same vertical line; count spaces or subtract y-coordinates, 7 - (-5) = 12.
The triangle is a right triangle, so the Pythagorean Theorem can be used to find the length of the hypotenuse.
The perimeter of the triangle is 5 + 12 + 13 = 30
If 6/20 took the bus then there is 14/20 remaining.
6/20 simplified is 3/10.
14/20 simplified is 7/10.
Hope This Helps You!

Answer:
x= 20
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the three angles is 90 degrees
x+2x+x+10 = 90
Combine like terms
4x+10 = 90
Subtract 10
4x+10-10 = 90-10
4x= 80
Divide by 4
4x/4=80/4
x = 20
She received $221.72. If you divide 385.60 in half, because she sold half, you get 192.8. You then multiply that number by 1.15. There you have your answer.
