Step-by-step explanation:
-- The smallest perimeter you can make with a certain area
is a circle.
-- The NEXT smallest perimeter with the same area is a square.
With 1-ft by 1-ft square bricks, the shortest perimeter she could
make would be by using her bricks to make it as square as possible.
Without cutting bricks into pieces, the best she could do would be
(13 bricks) x (3 bricks) .
= (13-ft) x (3-ft)
Perimeter = (2 x length) + (2 x width)
= (2 x 13-ft) + (2 x 3-ft)
= (26-ft) + (6-ft) = 32 feet <== shortest perimeter.
-- Then, the more UNSQUARE you make it, the more perimeter
it takes to enclose the same area. That means Mary has to make
a rectangle as long and skinny as she can.
The longest perimeter she can make (without cutting bricks into
pieces) is (39 bricks) x (1 brick) .
= (39-ft) x (1-ft) .
Perimeter = (2 x length) + (2 x width)
= (2 x 39-ft) + (2 x 1-ft)
= (78-ft) + (2-ft) = 80 feet .
What she'll have then is a brick path, 39 feet long and 1 foot wide,
and when you walk on it, you'll need to try hard to avoid falling off
because it's only 1 foot wide.
SOLUTION:
Let whole number = x
x + 2x^2 = 21
2x^2 + x - 21 = 0
2x^2 + 7x - 6x - 21 = 0
x ( 2x + 7 ) - 3 ( 2x + 7 ) = 0
( 2x + 7 ) ( x - 3 ) = 0
2x + 7 = 0
2x = - 7
x = - 7 / 2
OR
x - 3 = 0
x = 3
ANSWER:
Therefore, as 3 is a whole number while - 7 / 2 isn't a whole number, the whole number must be 3.
Hope this helps! :)
Have a lovely day! <3
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm pretty sure some smart guy in Greece noticed this but:
Since 4 + 8 = 12, thats the only option where 2 of the smaller sides add up to the big one. I don't know much of the reasoning behind this but my math teacher showed it to us by using Popsicle sticks to make triangles. You can try it if that helps you think about it. Apparently, if you add up the 2 smaller sides, then it HAS to be more than the biggest side.
