Answer:

4x - 36 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The area A of a  square whose sides are s units is given as

A = s * s

Given that the area A = x^2-18x+81, factorizing

A = x^2-9x-9x+81

A= x(x-9)-9(x-9)

A = (x-9)(x-9)

A = (x-9)^2

This means that the size of each side of the square  courtyard is x-9 feet long

Recall that the perimeter P of a square whose side is s long is given as

P = 4s hence since the side of the courtyard is x - 9 feet, the perimeter of the courtyard

P = 4(x-9)

= 4x - 36 feet

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

Results are below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Decrease rate (d)= 7%

Number of periods (n)= 7 years

Current population (PV)= 48,000

<u>First, to calculate the future value, we need to use the following decrease exponential formula:</u>

<u />

FV= PV*[(1+d)^-n]

<u>After 7 years:</u>

FV= 48,000*(1.07^-7)

FV= 29,892

The scale of a map is 6 km = 4 mi. What is the length on the map if the actual is 40.1<br> miles.
beks73 [17]

Answer:

60.15 km

Step-by-step explanation:

If 6 km on the map represents 4 mi on land, then we'd get the answer by using the relation

6 km -> 4 mi

x km -> 40.1 mi

Where x km is the length on the map we're looking for. If we cross multiply

6 * 40.1 = 4x

240.6 = 4x

x = 240.6/4

x = 60.15 km.

That is the length we're looking for

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]
First you substitute in the values so you have
V^2=(64)20
then you just simplify it
V^2=1280
V=the square root of 1280
V= about 35.7770876
or
V=the square root of 256 times <span>the square root of 5
V=16 times </span><span>the square root of 5

also V would typically be called velocity. it's very similar to speed but it is just easier to remember because it starts with a V</span>
