Find the length of the shortest side ( rounded to 2DP) if the area of the rectangle is 28m^2

Mathematics
1 answer:
posledela2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

4.39 to 2DP.

Step-by-step explanation:

x * (x - 2) =  28

x^2 - 2x = 28

Solving by completing the square:

(x - 1)^2 - 1 = 28

(x - 1)^2 = 29

x = +/-√29 + 1

x = 6.38516, -4.38516

x must be positive so it = 6.38516.

The shortest side = x - 2 = 4.385.

A³b² a²b simplify the following expression
liberstina [14]

Answer:

a^{5}b^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of indices can be used to simplify mathematical expressions involving  arithmetical operation on variables with powers.

a^{m} x a^{n} = a^{(m+n)}

Thus, the given expression can be simplified as follows:

a³b² a²b  = a³ x a² x b² x b^{1}

               = a^{3+2} x b^{2+1}

               = a^{5}b^{3}

Thus,

a³b² a²b  = a^{5}b^{3}

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer:

4.2

Step-by-step explanation:

\mathrm{Write\:the\:numbers\:one\:under\:the\:other,\:line\:up\:the\:decimal\:points.}

\mathrm{Add\:trailing\:zeroes\:so\:the\:numbers\:have\:the\:same\:length.}

\begin{matrix}\space\space&8&.&4\\ -&4&.&2\end{matrix}

\mathrm{Subtract\:each\:column\:of\:digits,\:starting\:from\:the\:right\:and\:working\:left}

\mathrm{In\:the\:bolded\:column,\:subtract\:the\:second\:digit\:from\:the\:first}:\quad \:4-2=2

\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&8&.&\textbf{4}\\ -&4&.&\textbf{2}\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&\space\space&\textbf{2}\end{matrix}}

\mathrm{Place\:the\:decimal\:point\:in\:the\:answer\:directly\:below\:the\:decimal\:points\:in\:the\:terms}

\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&8&\textbf{.}&4\\ -&4&\textbf{.}&2\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\space\space&\textbf{.}&2\end{matrix}}

\mathrm{In\:the\:bolded\:column,\:subtract\:the\:second\:digit\:from\:the\:first}:\quad \:8-4=4

\frac{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{8}&.&4\\ -&\textbf{4}&.&2\end{matrix}}{\begin{matrix}\space\space&\textbf{4}&.&2\end{matrix}}

=4.2

HURRY I NEED HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!! A circle is drawn within a square as shown.
Anton [14]
The width of the square is 7 cm. This is also the diameter of the circle.

To find the area of the square, you do 7², which is 49 cm². 

To find the area of a circle, you do πr².

The radius is half the diameter, so it's 7 ÷ 2, which is 3.5 cm.

π3.5² ≈ 38.4845100065 cm².

The shaded region is the area of the square minus the area of the circle.  

49 - 38.4845100065 = <span>10.5154899935, but because you're using 3.14 to approximate pi, the closest answer is 10.54 cm</span>².

The answer is 10.54 cm².
