Okay. fist off don't think of them as 5 units each, but 1. so if you were to put it on graphing paper and box squares each time. you would be able to get 8 in for both sides to make a square. Area then would be 1600ft squared because 8 ×5 is 40 and 40×40 is 1600. then you calculate how many squares you used. 8×8=64. and 80-64=16 so 16 pieces are left over. then 9×9 (increasing the square) is 81. so 17 pieces to increase it.
The answer to this is 5a-7
If you factor the trinomial using the AC method the answer would be
(x-3)(x+9)
9514 1404 393
Answer:
3.4%
Step-by-step explanation:
The total amount due is ...
A = P(1 +rt/12) . . . . . principal P, annual rate r, t months
33829.50 = 28500(1 +66/12r)
1.187 = 1 +5.5r . . . . . divide by 28500, simplify
0.185/5.5 = r = 0.034 = 3.4%
The interest rate on the loan is 3.4%.
In a right triangle, the hypotenuse is √2 x the legs. In this case, the value of x is
