If you want each side it will equal to 18 in. 18*4=72
Let...
x=the number of red bricks
y=the number of blue bricks
Since she bought a total of 100 bricks... x+y=100.
Because the total cost is $560... 5x+7y=560.
Using these two equations, we can use the substitution method to solve for x and y.
x+y=100 ------------------------> x=100-y
subtract y on both sides
Because x=100-y...
this is x
5x+7y=560 (second equation) equals 5( 100 - y )+7y=560
This equation we created has only one variable so we can solve it.
5(100-y)+7y=560
500-5y+7y=560
2y+500=560
2y=60
y=30 blue bricks
Because x=100-y... x=100-30=70 red bricks.
Answer:
5 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
We should derive an equation to solve this problem.
Let's assign x to width and y to length.
and
so
Width = 5 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
pythogoras theorem = Q²=P²+R²
P=P
Q= 57.6
R=33.8 =
(57.8)²=(P)²+(33.8)²
=3,340.84=(P)²+1142.44
=3340.84-1142.44=P²
=2,198.4=P²
