Answer
Find out the original side length of the square .
To prove
Let us assume that the original length of the square be x.
Formula
As given
The dimensions of a square are altered so that 8 inches is added to one side while 3 inches is subtracted from the other.
Length becomes = x + 8
Breadth becomes = x -3
The area of the resulting rectangle is 126 in²
Put in the formula
(x + 8) × (x - 3) = 126
x² -3x + 8x -24 = 126
x ²+ 5x = 126 +24
x² + 5x - 150 = 0
x² + 15x - 10x - 150 = 0
x (x + 15) -10 (x +15) =0
(x + 15)(x -10) =0
Thus
x = -15 , 10
As x = -15 (Neglected this value because the side of the square cannot be negative.)
Therefore x = 10 inches be the original side of the square.
X-9 the answer is option a
To find the mean, add the numbers, and divide by the amount of numbers there is.
(82 + 105 + 247 + 119 + 94 + 202)/6
Simplify. Remember to follow PEMDAS. First, add
(849)/6
Next, divide by 6
849/6 = 141.5
141.5 should be your answer

Step-by-step explanation:
50% interest annually.
that means he gets 50% interest of the invested capital every year.
and that means he gets 50% of $70 in one year.
70 = 100%
1% = 100%/100 = 70/100 = $0.70
50% = 1%×50 = 0.7 × 50 = $35
he will earn $35 interest in one year.
as you noticed: 50% simply means 1/2 (as 100% stands for the whole).
Answer: 306 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Surface is found by add all the areas of the sides together, including sides, top and bottom. You might need to divide the 3D shape into different shapes in order to find the area of the sides/top/bottoms. Area for rectangle = bxh.
