Answer:

The length of a side can be 3·√42 ft long

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is a word problem regarding the formula for the area of a square

The parameters given are;

Available concrete = Enough to pave 378 ft.²

Shape of patio Vince wants to make = Square

Therefore, the dimensions of the sides, s, of a square patio that has an area of 378 ft.² is found as follows;

s² = 378

Therefore, s = √378 = √(9 × 42) = 3·√42 ft

Hence, the length of a side can be 3·√42 ft long.

Answer:

Length of the side is:

x = 19.44 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Shape of the patio = Square

Area of patio = 378 ft²

We know that for square, all the sides are equal to each other and all the angles are equal to each other.

Let the side of the square = x

<h3>We need to find x</h3>

We know that for square.

Area of square = Length* Width

As all sides are equal, length is equals to x and width is also equals to x.

Where Area is equals to 378 ft²

Substitute values:

378 ft² = x*x

x² = 378 ft²

Taken square root on both sides

√x² = √378 ft²

x = 19.44 ft , x = -19.44 ft

As the length cannot be a negative value

x = 19.44 ft

An equation is shown.<br> 18+ 5(2x + 5) = 12<br> Solve the equation for x.
andriy [413]

Step-by-step explanation:

18+ 5(2x + 5) = 12

18 + 10x + 25 = 12

43 + 10x = 12

10x = 12 -43

10x = -31

x = -3.1

Prove that the statement (ab)^n=a^n * b^n is true using mathematical induction.
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

      (ab)^n=a^n * b^n

We need to show that it is true for n=1

assuming that it is true for n = k;

(ab)^n=a^n * b^n

( ab) ^1 = a^1 * b^1

ab = a * b

ab = ab

Then we need to show that it is true for n = ( k+1)

or (ab)^(k+1)=a^( k+1) * b^( k+1)

Starting with

  (ab)^k=a^k * b^k    given

Multiply each side by ab

ab *  (ab)^k= ab *a^k * b^k

   ( ab) ^ ( k+1) = a^ ( k+1) b^ (k+1)

Therefore, the rule is true for every natural number n

An engineer is designing a large steel pad to be installed on the deck of an aircraft carrier. Its total volume will be 18 yd^3.
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The cost of the material for the full-sized pad is;

d) 222,750.00

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters of the steel pad and the scale model are;

The volume of the deck = 18 yd³

The dimensions of the model of the same material = 6 feet by 4.5 feet and 4.5 inches thick

The weight of the sample, m₂ = 75 lbs

The cost of the steel, P = $55/lb

The dimensions of the sample in yards are;

6 feet = 2 yards, 4.5 feet = 1.5 yards, and 4 inches = 0.\overline 1 yards

The volume of the sample, V₂ = 2 yd. × 1.5 yd. × 0.\overline 1 yd. =  (1/3) yd.³

The density of the sample material, ρ = m₂/V₂

∴ The density of the sample material, ρ = 75 lbs/((1/3)yd.³) = 225 lbs/yd³

Therefore, the density of the material of the pad, ρ = 225 lbs/yd³

The mass of the steel  pad, m₁ = ρ × V₁

∴ The mass of the steel  pad, m₁ = 225 lbs/yd³ × 18 yd³ = 4,050 lbs

The cost of the material for the full-sized steel pad, C = m₁ × P

∴ C = 4,050 lbs × $55/lb = $222,750
