Problem 1
<h3>Answer: 7.3</h3>
Explanation: Apply the square root to the area to get the side length. This only applies to areas that are squares (hence the name).
==================================================
Problem 2
<h3>Answer: C) 1.3</h3>
Explanation: Use your calculator to find that choices A,B,D plugged into the square root function yield terminating decimal values. "Terminating" means "stop". This implies that they are perfect squares (though not perfect squares in the sense of whole number perfect squares which you may be used to). Choice C is the only value that has a square root that leads to a non-terminating decimal. The digits of this decimal go on forever without any pattern. The value is irrational.
- sqrt(5.29) = 2.3 terminating decimal
- sqrt(13.69) = 3.7 terminating decimal
- sqrt(1.3) = 1.140175425 keeps going forever without any pattern
- sqrt(0.09) = 0.3 terminating decimal
==================================================
Problem 3
<h3>Answer: 23.6 feet approximately</h3>
Explanation: Apply the square root to 15.5 to get roughly 3.937; this is the approximate side length of one square. Six of these tiles placed together will lead to a total length of roughly 6*3.937 = 23.622 which rounds to 23.6 feet. Like with problem 1, the square root being used like this only works for square areas.
Answer:
x=21/5
Step-by-step explanation:
5x:9 = 7:3
Turn the ratios into fractions:
5x/9 = 7/3
Then cross mutiply
15x=63
x=21/5
Answer:
12 is to the right of -15 on a number line.

Hope this helps! - CJ
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
your answer is 4,561.593
Difference between 25 and 35 = 35 -25
= 10
Then
percentage by which 25 is less than 35 =(10/35) * 100
= (2/7) * 100
= 200/7
= 28.57 percent
So 25 is 28.57% less than 35.This is the only clear way of solving these kind of problems. I hope you
have understood the method used to solve this problem. Hopefully you
can do such type of problems without needing any help.
