<span>Using the information we have
3x+4=40
Do the same to each side of the equation to eliminate for x.
3x+4=40 Minus 4 from each side
3x=40-4
3x=36
Divide 3 from each side
x=36/3
x=12
AC=3x+4
insert the value of x
3(12)+4=40
AC=40
AD=20</span>
Answer:
<h2>a = 1</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:

Don't you mean "the sum of the squares ..."?
The sum of the squares of two consecutive whole numbers is 25. Find the numbers. Let the first be represented by x and the second by x+1.
Then x^2+(x+1)^2=25. Expanding, x^2+x^2+2x+1=25.
Rewriting this as a quadratic equation in standard form,
2x^2+2x+1=25, or 2x^2+2x-24=0. Simplifying, x^2+x-12=0.
Factoring, (x-3)(x+4)=0. Solving for x: x-3=0, so x=3; x+4=0, so x=-4.
Choose the positive x value: x=3. Then the next consecutive number is 2+1=3+1=4.
Check: Does 3^2 + 4^2 = 5^2 = 25? Yes.
The numbers are 3 and 4.

Step-by-step explanation:
4.2 x 10^6 − 1.2 x 10^5 − 2.5 x 10^5
All exponent have to have the same number
42 x 10^5 − 1.2 x 10^5 − 2.5 x 10^5
Subtract the number
42 - 1.2 - 2.5 = 38.3
Add back the exponent
38.3 * 10 ^5
This is not in scientific notation
Move the decimal one place to the left and add one to the exponent
3.83 * 10^6
3.3 x 10^9 + 2.6 x 10^9 + 7.7 x 10^8
All exponent have to have the same number
3.3 x 10^9 + 2.6 x 10^9 + .77 x 10^9
Add the numbers
3.3+2.6+.77 =6.67
Add back the exponent
6.67*10^9
This is in scientific notation
8.0 x 10^4 − 3.4 x 10^4 − 1.2 x 10^3
All exponent have to have the same number
8.0 x 10^4 − 3.4 x 10^4 − .12 x 10^4
Subtract
8.0 - 3.4 - .12 = 4.48
Add back the exponent
4.48* 10^4
This is in scientific notation
