Answer:
E
Step-by-step explanation:
Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle
s² + s² = 2²
2s² = 4 ( divide both sides by 2 )
s² = 2 ( take the square root of both sides )
s = 
Because it will not be 40 percent of the original, since after 20 percent is gone, the next year itll be 20 percent of the product, instead of the original, so for example, if it was 100, it would go down to 80, and then the next year it would be 20 percent of 80, not 100
area=legnth times width
we notice this is a special case
(a+b)(a-b)=a^2-b^2
area=(a+3b)(a-3b)=a^2-9b^2
area=a^2-9b^2
Since it's a multiple of 24, it has to be a multiple of the factors of 24.
Factors of 24:
2,3,4,6,8,12
You can use some of this knowledge to help create the number.
Since the # needs to be a multiple off 2, the last digit needs to be an 8
All numbers that are multiples of 3 have the property that all of their digits added together have to be a number that is evenly divisible by 3.
so your number will look like:
_ _ _ _ _ 8
so start trying combinations for the other 5 digits that give you a number that is a multiple of 3: 3,6,9,12,15, ect. If you can't find one, then it's impossible
