Answer:

l=5.12 & w=2.62

Step by step explanation:

A=l×w

13.42=lw

w=13.42/l

$p = 2(l + w) \\ 16.6 = 2(l + \frac{13.42}{l} ) \\ 16.6 = 2( \frac{ {l}^{2} + 13.42}{l}) \\ 16.6 = 2(l + 13.42) \\ 16.6 = 2l + 26.84 \\ 2l = 26.84 - 16.6 \\ 2l = 10.24 \\ l = \frac{10.24}{2} \\ l = 5.12km$

Since you have found the value of the length you can find the value.of the width.

$w = \frac{13.42}{l} \\ w = \frac{13.42}{5.12} \\ w = 2.62km$

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

option C

c. least: $101

greatest: $1001

Step-by-step explanation:

A radio station advertises a contest with ten cash prizes totaling $5510. There is to be a $100 difference between each successive prize.

Sum of 10 prizes = 5510

100 is the difference. there is a common difference d=100

So its a arithmetic sequence

the sum formula for arithmetic sequence is

$S_n = \frac{n}{2}(2a_1 +(n-1)d)$

Sn = 5510, n=10 n d= 100 we need to find out first term a1

$5510 = \frac{10}{2}(2a_1 +(10-1)100)$

5510 = 5 (2a1 + 900)

5510 = 10a1 + 4500

Subtract 4500 on both sides

1010= 10a1

divide by 10 on both sides

a1 = 101

so first term that is least term is 101

To find out greatest term we use formula

$a_n = a_1 + (n-1) d$

a(10) = 101 + (10-1)100

= 101 + 900= 1001

greatest is 1001

X^2 - 36 = 0.

strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

(x+6)(x−6)=0

x=-6 or x=6

Step-by-step explanation:

X^2 - 36 = 0

Solve by Square Root

add 36 both sides

x^2−36+36=0+36

x^2=36

square root

x=±√36

x=6 or x=−6

You can do that or for 2nd option

Solve by factoring

x^2-36=0

(x+6)(x−6)=0

Set factors equal to 0

x+6=0 or x−6=0

x=-6 or x=6

PLEASE NOTE: 36 is the square of 6

and

x2 is the square of x1
