Answer:

117 m^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

First think of the square that was removed.  All 4 sides are equal but you don't know the length so lets gives them the variable X.

So to find the area of the rectangle, insert those variables into the area equation for a rectangle.

(RV + (X) ) (PT +(X)) = rectangle area

Now you are given what the area is if you remove the square.  So subtract the the square's area from the equation above and set it equal to the size they told you.

(RV + (X)) (PT + (X))  - [(X)(X)] = 92m^{2}

      rectangle          -  square  =  remaining area

Now plug in the numbers you know and solve for X.

(8 + X) (4 + X) - ((X)(X)) = 92    

Use FOIL to multiply the first part of the equation (first, outer, inner, last)

32 + 8x + 4x + x^{2} -  x^{2}  =  92

32 + 12x = 92

12x = 60

x = 5

So now you know the size of the square.  Each side is 5m.  So add 5m onto the top of the rectangle and onto the side.  The top is 13m and the side is 9m.  The area of the rectangle is the length times the height to 13 x 9 which is 117 m^{2}

\Large\text{Law number 1:-}

\Large\text{It states that:-}

                        When we multiply together numbers with the same base,

                         we add the exponents.

\Large\text{Law number 2:-}

\Large\text{$a^m:a^n=a^{m-n}$}

\Large\text{It states that:-}

                     When we divide numbers with the same base, we

\Large\text{Law number 3:-}

\Large\text{$(\displaystyle\frac{x}{y}) ^n=\frac{x^n}{y^n}$}

\Large\text{It states that:-}

                 If we have a fraction to a power, we raise the numerator and

               the denominator to that power.

And then last but not least,

\Large\textit{Law number 4:-}

\Large\text{$a^{-m} =\displaystyle\frac{1}{a^m}$}

\Large\text{It states that:-}

                   If we have a number with a negative exponent, we flip it over.

Compare using &gt;,=, or &gt;.
il63 [147K]

Answer:

5 = 5

5 < 6

7 > 6

Step-by-step explanation:

The two slashes is the equal sign, comparing two numbers that are of the same value. The sign below that means "less than," and 5 is less than 6. The sign below the "less than" sign is the "greater than" sign, and in the given example, 7 is GREATER THAN 6.

A chemistry teacher needs to mix a 20% salt solution with an 80% salt solution to make 20 qt of a 40% salt solution. How many qu
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

  • 6 2/3 qt 80%
  • 13 1/3 qt 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

It is often convenient to solve a mixture problem by letting a variable represent the quantity of the higher-concentration contributor to the mix.

__

We can let x represent the number of quarts of 80% solution needed. Then (20-x) is the number of quarts of 20% solution needed. The amount of salt in the final mix is ...

  0.80x +0.20(20-x) = 0.40(20)

  0.60x = 0.20(20) . . . . . . . . subtract 0.20(20) and simplify

  x = 20/3 = 6 2/3 . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.60; quarts of 80% solution

  (20 -x) = 13 1/3 . . . . . . . . . . amount of 20% solution needed

The teacher should mix 6 2/3 quarts of 80% solution with 13 1/3 quarts of 20% solution.

Uber is now charging a $2.50 flat rate in addition to $0.75 per mile for your ride. Janae can spend at most $13 on her Uber Ride
Alex777 [14]

Answer:

  • B: 10

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Full charge can be expressed as equation:</u>

  • c = 2.5 + 0.75m, where c- charge, m- miles

<u>The limit for charge is $13, then we got inequality:</u>

  • 0.75m + 2.5 ≤ 13
  • 0.75m ≤ 9.5
  • m ≤ 9.5/0.75
  • m ≤ 12.66

Option B: 10 is correct as the only number satisfying the inequality
