Answer:

x = 8.6603 m

Step-by-step explanation:

If x is the length of a side of the square, the area of the square will be x^2.

So, if the area of the square is 75 ft2, we can formulate the quadratic equation:

x^2 = 75

Now, solving the equation, we just need to make the square root of 75:

x = sqrt(75) = ±8.6603

x1 = 8.6603

x2 = -8.6603

Now, as x represents the length of a side of the square, and measurements can't be negative, we take only the positive value, so:

x = 8.6603 m

The table shows the relationship between a, the area of a rectangle, and h, its height, when the base remains constant.
olganol [36]

Answer:

a = 4h.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area (a) = base (b) * height (h).

When h = 2, a = 8:

a =  bh

6 = 2b

b = 4

The result 4 is the same for  h = 5, 7 and 12.

So the required equation is

a = 4h.
