Hey there!
Since we don't have values for b, d, and r, we can't get a specific number for the value of a, if that makes sense. It'll be represented by these variables.
To solve, we need to make sure the equation looks like a = ? .
Subtract b from each side of the equation.
<u>a = dr - b </u>
Now we have solved for a.
Hope this helps!
Actually, yes, it is possible for two different numbers to give the same result when squared.
In my last answer, I wrote that it wasn't, but I realize now where my mistake was made.
When a number like positive 4 is squared, the answer is 16. When a number like negative 4 is squared, the answer is also 16. I think that the only time when two different squared numbers have the same result is when they are the same number but have a different positive/negative sign.
I hope this helps.
Answer: The answer is D. Trapezoid.
Step-by-step explanation: As shown in the attached figure, a rectangular pyramid ABCDE is drawn. We are slicing this rectangular pyramid parallel to the base BCDE at the points F, G, H and I.
We can clearly see from the figure that upper half of the sliced figure will be similar to the pyramid BCDE and the lower sliced figure will be a trapezoid. These are the three-dimensional figures.
Also, the sliced two-dimensional figure FGHI will be a rectangle, because
the pyramid is a rectangular one and so, FI=GH, FG=HI and all the angles are right angles.
Thus, the resulting two-dimensional figure will be a rectagle.
Answer:
there are a total of 20 boys and 30 girls in the choir of 50 students
Step-by-step explanation:
Scale the ratio 2:3. so that the numbers on either side sum to 50 . 2+3=5 , and 50÷5=10 , so we scale our ratio by a factor of 10 . So there are a total of 20 boys and 30 girls in the choir of 50 students
