Answer:

Maria's book is 202 pages long, Brandon's book is 146 pages long

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set this up with 2 variables: lets say that Maria's book length is x and Brandon's is y.

We can see that Maria's book is 56 pages longer than Brandon's and can come up with an equation:

x=y+56

We also see that their booklengths add up to 348, and can get:

x+y=348

From here, we solve for x and y. We can use substitution to find y.

x+y=348

(y+56)+y=348

2y=292

y=146

Here we plug in for x:

x=y+56

x=(146)+56

x=202

Therefor we get that Maria's book is 202 pages long, Brandon's book is 146 pages long

Answer:

b = 7\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the triangle is right use the tangent ratio to solve for b

and the exact value

tan30° = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} }, thus

tan30° = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{7}{b} and

\frac{7}{b} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{3} } ( cross- multiply )

b = 7\sqrt{3}

You have to use the equation which has just slipped my mind. It say x1-y1 over x2-y2. Then you will find x. I am so sorry this equation name slipped my mind. If I remember I will let you know.

Step-by-step solution for: (√2+√10)^2
azamat
Note:  √a * √a  = a
           √a * √b  = √ab

(√2 + √10)²  =  (√2 + √10)(√2 + √10)
                    =  √2(√2 + √10) + √10(√2 + √10)
                    =   √2*√2 + √2*√10 + √10*√2 + √10*√10
                    =       2      + √20  + √20 + 10
                    =      (2 + 10) + (√20 + √20)
                    =        12 +  2√20

√20 = √(4 *5) = √4 * √5 = 2√5

                     =        12 +  2√20  = 12 + 2(2√5)
                     = 12 + 4√5
