A number is a perfect square (or a square number) if its square root is an integer; that is to say, it is the product of an integer with itself. Here, the square root of 20 is about 4.472. Thus, the square root of 20 is not an integer, and therefore 20 is not a square number.

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

x = 3.75

Step-by-step explanation:

ABC is a right angled triangle.

Therefore, by Pythagoras theorem:

${(10 - x)}^{2} = {x}^{2} + {5}^{2} \\ 100 - 20x + {x}^{2} = {x}^{2} + 25 \\ 100 - 20x = 25 \\ - 20x = 25 - 100 \\ - 20x = - 75 \\ x = \frac{ - 75}{ - 20} \\ \: \: \huge \red { \boxed{x = 3.75}}$

Shiloh is 7 years older than Courtney. Shiloh's age is 13 years less than two times Courtney's age. The system below models the

Andrews [41]

I'm afraid I don't see the models you have written about although I do know the answer. (C= Courtney's age, S= Shilo's age)

Shilo is 7 years older then Courtney, which equals to C+7=S.

While at the same time Shilo is 13 years younger then twice Courtney's age. This turns into Cx2-13=S.

c+7=cx2-13. This is the equation, now lets work it out.

Add 13 on each side and you get

c+20=2c

Now we subtract c from each side and we get

20=c Therefor we have found out that Courtney is 20 years old.

Shilo being 7 years older then Courtney is 27
