The side length of the square concrete slab if the area is increased by 25% is 5feet

The formula for calculating the area of a square is expressed as:

A =  L² where:

L is the side length of the square

Given the area of the square concrete slab = 20 square feet

20 = L²

L =√20

If the area is increased  by 25%, new area will be:

An = 20 + (0.25*20)

An = 20 + 5

An = 25 sq.ft

Get the new length

An = Ln²

25 =   Ln²

Ln = √25

Ln = 5feet

Hence the side length of the square concrete slab if the area is increased by 25% is 5feet

17. Given the graph below, find PQ.
Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

you actually don't need a graph to be able to solve this equation. As long as you are given two data points, you can already solve for the linear equation. The most common way of writing linear equations is the slope-intercept form: y = mx + b, where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

If a circle has a Diameter of 4m and a Radius of 4 units. Then what is Circumference and Area of the circle?
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer & Step-by-step explanation:

Circumference=d\pi \\Area=r^2\pi

The diameter of the circle is 8 m and the radius of the circle is 4 units. So, now we have to plug in the numbers so we can find the circumference and the area of the circle.

Circumference=(8)\pi

Circumference=25.12

So, the circumference of the circle is 25.12 m.

Area=(4)^2\pi

Area=16\pi

Area=50.24

So, the area of the circle is 50.24 units².

Ramona and Beezus love to read books. Ramona reads 16 less than 5 times the number of books Beezus reads. Ramona reads 134 books
Fittoniya [83]
I think the answer is 30, because if 134 +16 is 5 times the number of books Beezus reads, than just divide by 4 for the answer of 30

Zarrin [17]

if y=367

then you need to figure out this:

367=5x+287

so remove 287 from 367

367-287=80

Then divide by 5

80/5=16

so, x=16
