The original square has the area (8 in)^2 = 64 in^2.
If we mult. this area by 36, we get the area of a larger square 2304 in^2.
The new side length is sqrt(2304 in^2), or 48. In other words, the original square has side length 8 in, but the 'new' square has side length 48 in.
Answer:
These types of questions are not daunting if you break it down. First look at "Five less than twice the value of a number."
"Twice the value of a number" is simply 2x.
"Five less" is simply -5, so for the first part we have (2x-5)
Next, analyze the second part. "Three times the quantity of four more than one half the number."
Looking at "Three times the quantity" simply means "3 times something".
"the quantity of four more than one half the number" is 4 + "one half the number" or 4 + (1/2)x.
So the second part is simply 3(4+x/2).
Finally we finish the entire equation, (2x-5) = 3(4+x/2) then solve for x.
2x-5 = 12 + (3/2)x
2x-(3/2)x = 17
x/2 = 17
x=34
Checking the left side, (2x-5) = 2(34) - 5 = 63.
Checking the right side, 3(4+(34/2)) = 3(4+17) = 3(21) = 63.
In the second equation it is actually going on to be +2x^2 -4x-2 then your going to combine like terms. So it will be 5x^2-10. Because he 4x’s are going to eliminate each other.
