Answer:

In math students think that the function just removes negative signs, and actually that is basically what happens...

BUT !!! the definition that you want is that absolute value is a measure of how far (distance) you are from ZERO.... and note that distances are not negative...

If you run out of gas one mile in front of behind a gas station, you have to travel "one mile" you don't walk "negative one mile"...

forward one mile or backward one mile are both "one mile" just in different directions

a wire of length 200 cm is cut into two parts and each part is bent to form a square.If the area of the larger square is 9 times
diamong [38]

<em>Answer:</em>

<em>The perimeter of the larger square is 150cm.</em>

<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>

<em>First of all, let one part of it be "x"</em>

<em>and the other part of it "200-x"</em>

<em>Now to solve this :</em>

<em>The area of the square = L^2</em>

<em>The area of one part of the square = x^2</em>

<em>The area of the other part of the square = (200-x)^2</em>

<em>9x^2= (200-x)^2\\9x^2=40000-400x+x^2</em>

<em></em>

<em>Now, add, -4x^2 to both the sides :</em>

<em>9x^2-9x^2=40000-400x+x^2-9x^2\\-1(8x^2+400x-40000)=0</em>

<em />

<em>Now, take out the "8" which is common :</em>

<em>-8(x^2+50x-5000)=0</em>

<em></em>

<em>Now, divide it by -8 :</em>

<em>x^2+100x-50x-5000=0\\x(x+100)-50(x+100)=0\\(x+100)(x-50)=0\\</em>

<em>x=-100 or 50</em>

<em />

<em>So, now we know that :</em>

<em>One of the part is = 50cm</em>

<em>And the other part is = 150cm</em>

<em />

<em>Thus the perimeter of the larger square is = 150cm</em>
