Answer:
15 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume that the edge of the small square is x (inches).
As the edge of the larger square is 2 inches greater than that of the smaller one, so that the edge of the larger square = edge of the small square + 2 = x + 2 (inches)
The equation to calculate the are of a square is: <em>Area = Edge^2 </em>
So that:
+) The area of the larger square is: <em>Area large square = </em>
<em> (square inches)</em>
+) The area of the smaller square is: <em>Area small square = </em>
<em>(square inches)</em>
<em />
As difference in area of both squares are 64 square inches, so that we have:
<em>Area large square - Area small square = 64 (square inches)</em>
<em>=> </em>
<em />
<em>=> </em>
<em />
<em>=> 4x + 4 = 64</em>
<em>=> 4x = 64 - 4 = 60 </em>
<em>=> x = 60/4 = 15 (inches)</em>
So the length of an edge of the smaller square is 15 inches
The answer would be 901 because they said what is the least number they would need to read and their goal is MORE than 900. The amount of books that they already had is useless information (Ignore). They love giving trick questions. :)
I don’t know if you need to round, but you can do so on the answer for mondays if necessary
On Monday, the animals cost $1.03125.
On Tuesday, the animals cost exactly $1.
Ok so if -6 is the y intercept you look for -6 on the y axis and use rise over run up one over one until you can't plot anymore and then down one over one and do the same thing did that help you Phil?
