Answer: The answer is 8.
Step-by-step explanation: The first step is to convert the expression into figures. We shall call the unknown number Y. So if we are told “the square of a number,” that means Y squared, or better still, Y^2. Further we are told “the difference between the square of a number and 40” and that can be written as;
Y^2 - 40.
Next we are told that this expression is equal to 3 times that number (that is 3Y). That can now be written out as follows,
Y^2 - 40 = 3Y
If we move all expressions to one side of the equation, what we would have is,
Y^2 - 3Y -40 = 0
(Remember that when a positive value crosses to the other side of an equation it becomes negative and vice versa)
We now have a quadratic equation
Y^2 -3Y - 40 = 0
By factorizing we now have
(Y -8) (Y + 5) = 0
Therefore Y - 8 = 0 or
Y + 5 = 0
Hence, Y = 8 or Y = -5
Since we are asked to calculate the positive solution, Y = 8
We are given that:
side length = 8 3/2 inches = 9.5 inches
the rule for the area is: A = s^2
Substitute with the side length in the rule given to get the area as follows:
Area = s^2 = (9.5)^2 = 90.25 inch^2
Answer:
The answer is 36 units2
Step-by-step explanation:
I took the test so I’m right
Answer:
8 units
Step-by-step explanation:
so there is something called Pythagorean thereon and it states that a^2+b^2=c^2
and 6 is either a or b
and c is ten so
6^2+b^2=10^2
36+b^2=100
b^2=64
here you need to find the square root in order to delete the power so
b=8
or
x=8
Answer:
A = 2.63
B = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the population density, what we need to do simply is divide the population by the area of the UK
mathematically, that would be;
(6.41 * 10^7)/243,610 = 263.125
To the nearest whole person= 263 people/ square meter
So now we want to write 263 in standard form = 2.63 * 10^2
So this means A = 2.63 and B = 2
