3/2x-4=20
We simplify the equation to the form, which is simple to understand
3/2x-4=20
We move all terms containing x to the left and all other terms to the right.
+2x=+20+4
We simplify left and right side of the equation.
+2x=+24
We divide both sides of the equation by 2 to get x.
x=12
Answer:
27 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
We are using the Pythagorean theorem
a^2 +b^2 = c^2 where c is the hypotenuse
We are given the diagonal, which is the hypotenuse and a leg
36^2 + b^2 = 45^2
Subtract 36^2 from each side
36^2 + b^2 - 36^2 = 45^2 - 36^2
b^2 = 45^2 - 36^2
b^2 =2025-1296
b^2 =729
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(729)
b =27
Note that the measurements of the side of the squares are the same.
Area = base x height
Area = length x width
The area given is 400
Root 400 to get the length of the sides
√400 = 20
20 in. is your side measurement
hope this helps
