Answer:
x = 44
Step-by-step explanation:
sqrt(x+5) -3 =4
Add 3 to each side
sqrt(x+5) -3+3 =4+3
sqrt(x+5) =7
Square each side
(sqrt(x+5))^2 =7^2
x+5 = 49
Subtract 5 from each side
x+5-5 = 49-5
x=44
A. Terms
b. 9
64 to 49 is -15, 49 to 36 is -13, 36 to 25 is -11, 25 to 16 is -9, so the next number is 16-7=9
So the percentage would be 40% and then the ratio would be 3:4
Let's multiply each of the four squares, one by one.
In blue, we see the dimensions are x by x. x times x = x^2
In pink, we see the dimensions are 9 by x. x times 9 = 9x
In green, the dimensions are x by 3. 3 times x = 3x
And finally, yellow's dimensions are 3 by 9. 3 times 9 = 27
We can now just add all these areas to find the total area:
x^2 + 12x + 27
