The area of a square is
s • s
We can also write this as
s^2
So, for any side length “s”, we can make a function, A(s), such that
A(s) = s^2
Now that we have a quadratic equation for the area of a square, let’s go ahead and solve for the side lengths of a square with a given area. In this case, 225 in^2
225 = s^2
Therefore,
s = sqrt(225)
s = 15
So, the dimensions are 15 x 15 in
8) 5 + 4 + 2 = 11
Since there are 5 guavas, the correct answer is B. 5/11
9) 3 + 4 = 7
Since there are 4 blue papers, the correct answer is A. 4/7
10) Count all of the numbers and add them. There are 4 twos, 2 fives, and 1 three:
4 + 2 + 1 = 7
Since there are 4 twos, the correct answer is C. 4/7
so amnt of money is x
x - 5 is Mark's remaining amnt
x - 20 is Susan's remaining amount
x - 5 = 2( x - 20) as he has twice the amnt of Susan
x - 5 = 2x - 40
40 - 5 = 2x - x
35 = x
the original amnt is $35
