We can use the equation x=\frac{3}{4} y to find the length of the side of a square.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that, the perimeter of a square is equal to the perimeter of an equilateral triangle.  

The length of a side of the square is given by "x"

And the length of a side of the equilateral triangle is given by "y"

Finding the equation to determine value of "x"

<em><u>The perimeter of a square with side "x" is given as:</u></em>

\text { perimeter of a square }=4 \times \text { side }=4 x

<em><u>Perimeter of a equilateral triangle with side "y" is given as:</u></em>

\text { perimeter of a equilateral triangle }=3 \text { side }=3 y

Given that perimeter of a square = perimeter of an equilateral triangle

\begin{array}{l}{\rightarrow 4 x=3 y} \\\\ {\rightarrow x=\frac{3}{4} y}\end{array}

Hence, we can use the equation x=\frac{3}{4} y to find the length of the side of a square.

We do 1111+777 for the total and that is 1888

1888/2=944

then 1111-944=167; then they will have equal amounts!!

The sum of three consecutive terms of an arithmetic sequence is 27, and the sum of their squares is 293. What is the absolute di
Ber [7]

The absolute difference between the greatest and the least of these three numbers in the arithmetic sequence is 10.

The sequence is an arithmetic sequence. Therefore,

d = common difference

let

a = centre term

Therefore, the 3 consecutive term will be as follows

a - d,  a, a + d

a - d +  a + a + d = 27

3a = 27

a = 27 / 3

a = 9

Therefore,

(a-d)² + (a)² + (a + d)² = 293

(a²-2ad+d²) + 9² + (a² + 2ad + d²) = 293

(81 - 18d + d²) + 81 + (81 + 18d + d²) = 293

243 + 2d² = 293

2d² = 50

d² = 50 / 2

d = √25

d = 5

common difference = 5

Therefore, the 3 numbers are as follows

9 - 5 , 9, 9 + 5 = 4, 9, 14

The difference between the greatest and the least of these 3 numbers are as follows:

14 - 4 = 10

RideAnS [48]

Answer:

y=(x-5)^2-4

Step-by-step explanation:

this is because the -4 drops it below the line and then x-5^2 stays where it is so mainly the minus in the domian and range and the -4 moves it over
