A) The greatest rectangular area will be the area of a square 10 m on each side, 100 m^2.
b) The new dimensions will be 11 m × 11 m.
.. The new area will be (11 m)^2 = 121 m^2.
c) The area was increased by 121 m^2 -100 m^2 = 21 m^2, or 21%.
d) Yes, and no.
.. If you increase the dimensions by 10%, the area will increase by 21%.
.. (40 m)^2 = 1600 m^2
.. (44 m)^2 = 1936 m^2 = 1.21*(1600 m^2), an increase of 21% over the original.
.. If you increase the dimensions by 1 unit, the area will increase by (2x+1) square units, where x is the side of the original. For x≠10, this is not 21 square units.
.. (41 m)^2 = 1681 m^2 = 1600 m^2 +(2*40 +1) m^2 = 1600 m^2 +81 m^2
So the sum of 17 and a number x means to add them on one side of the equals sign. The other side would be your 20.
17 + x = 20
Answer:
r = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
r -8 = 10
r -8 + 8 = 10 + 8
r = 18
I believe the answer is D
