Let's say side length is s.
s*s = 500, so s = √500.
4 sides needed, total length thus 4*s.
4√500 ≈ 89.4
Answer: 0.04219409282
Step-by-step explanation:
I assume you mean one that is not rational, such as √2. In such a case, you make a reasonable estimate of it's position, and then label the point that you plot.
For example, you know that √2 is greater than 1 and less than 2, so put the point at about 1½ (actual value is about 1.4142).
For √3, you know the answer is still less than 4, but greater than √2. If both of those points are required to be plotted just make sure you put it in proper relation, otherwise about 1¾ is plenty good (actual value is about 1.7321).
If you are going to get into larger numbers, it's not a bad idea to just learn a few roots. Certainly 2, 3, and 5 (2.2361) and 10 (3.1623) shouldn't be too hard.
Then for a number like 20, which you can quickly workout is √4•√5 or 2√5, you could easily guess about 4½ (4.4721).
They're usually not really interested in your graphing skills on this sort of exercise. They just want you to demonstrate that you have a grasp of the magnitude of irrational numbers.
Answer:
y = 3x - 11
Step-by-step explanation:
y=mx+b
1=3(4)+b
1=12+b
b=-11
By definition the area of a rectangle is:
A = w * l
The perimeter is:
P = 2w + 2l
Where,
w: width
l: long
Substituting values:
300 = w * l
80 = 2w + 2l
Solving the system of equations we have:
l = 30 m
w = 10 m
Answer:
The length and width of the field are:
l = 30 m
w = 10 m
