Step-by-step explanation:
I can’t understand because I speak English
A. 48 = 12 + 20 + x
If you use this equation then you can do 12 + 20 = 32 and then you can do 48 - 32 = 16 so x = 16
Perfect squares are n² where n is a whole number
whole numbers are like 0,1,2,3,4,5,6, etc
no decimal or fractions
we can do that be looking at the perfect squares we know
2²=4
3²=9
4²=16
5²=25
6²=36
7²=49
8²=64
etc
so we see 47 is between 6² and 7²
therefor, for n²=47, n is between 6 and 7 and is therfore not a whole number
that makes 47 not a perfect square
