find the length of the side of square with an area of 121 in2. A.484 in, B.30.25 in, C.11 in, D.6.5 in
marishachu [46]
For a square, the area is the square of the side length (length x width = area, but in a square length = width). That means the side length is the square root of the area.

In this case the side length is the square root of 121, which is 11. Answer is C.

The combined height of one fir tree and one pine tree is 212121 meters. The height of 444 fir trees stacked on top of each other
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Height of fir tree = 9 meters

height of pine tree= 12 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The combined height of one fir tree and one pine tree is 21 meters. The height of 4 fir trees stacked on top of each other is 24 meters taller than one pine tree.

Let x be the height of fir tree and y be the height of pine tree

x+y=21

Subtract x from both sides

y=21-x

height of 4 fir trees = pine tree +24

4x=y+24

Substitute 21-x or y in the above equation

4x=21-x+24

Add x on both sides

5x=45

Divide by 5 on both sides

x=9

Now plug in 9 for x and find out y

y=21-x

y=21-9

y=12

Height of fir tree = 9 meters

height of pine tree= 12 meters

El sábado he gastado 3/5 del dinero que tenía para el fin de semana, el domingo 3/4 de
Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

Her original amount of money can be represented by the variable x

Because we are spending one-fourth of her money, and “of” translate to multiply, we can write 1/4(x), or equivalently we can say 0.25x of her money, if you prefer decimal.

When you say 1/2 of it, this refers to the original amount of money, x, unless the problem wants you to figure how much 1/2 of the remaining amount is. So if the problem is directly asking for 1/2 of it, that would’ve half of x, or 0.5x in decimal.

Remaining was 50 pence, so the original amount minus 1/4 of the amount minus 1/2 the amount equals 50 pence or .50 giving us the equation: x-0.25x-0.5x=.50

Combine like terms on the left, and we have 0.25x=0.50.

Divide by 0.25 on both sides.

We have x equals 2.

So she started with $2. To check this, we ask ourselves does having $2, and spending 1/4 of it and spending 1/2 of it, then result to 50 pence?

Yes it does, because 2–1–0.5 does in fact equal 0.50 (50pence)

Su cantidad original de dinero puede ser representada por la variable x Debido a que estamos gastando una cuarta parte de su dinero, y "de" se traduce para multiplicar, podemos escribir 1/4 (x), o equivalentemente podemos decir 0.25x de su dinero , si lo prefiere decimal. Cuando dices la mitad, esto se refiere a la cantidad original de dinero, x, a menos que el problema quiera que calcules la mitad de la cantidad restante. Entonces, si el problema es pedir directamente la mitad, tendría la mitad de x, o 0.5x en decimal. El restante era 50 centavos, por lo que la cantidad original menos 1/4 de la cantidad menos la mitad de la cantidad es igual a 50 peniques o .50, lo que nos da la ecuación: x-0.25x-0.5x = .50 Combina términos semejantes a la izquierda, y tenemos 0.25x = 0.50 Divide por 0.25 en ambos lados, tenemos x igual a 2. ella empezó con 2 dólares. Para comprobar esto, nos preguntamos si tener 2 dólares y gastar 1/4 de ellos y gastar la mitad de ellos, ¿da como resultado 50 centavos? sí eso
