Answer:

Let the measure of each side of the square be " x " cm.

then ,

area of square = x²

After we folded the square into a rectangle ,

length of rectangle = x

breadth of rectangle = x/2

perimeter of rectangle = 36 cm

x +  \frac{x}{2}  + x +  \frac{x}{2}  = 36 \\  \\    \frac{2x + x + 2x + x}{2}  = 36 \\  \\   \frac{6x}{2}  = 36 \\  \\ 6x = 36 \times 2 \\  \\ 6x = 72 \\  \\ 6x =  \cancel{\frac{72}{6} } = 12cm

hence ,

side of square = 12 cm

therefore ,

area of square = 12 × 12 = 144 cm²

Please help!! This is so confusing! 100 points!!

Answer:

The value of the expression given is:

  • 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you must divide the expression in three, and to the final, you can multiply it:

  1. [(3^8)*(2^(-5))*(9^0)]^(-2)
  2. [(2^(-2))/(3^3)]^4
  3. 3^28

Now, we can solve each part one by one:

<em>First part. </em>

  • 3^8 = 6561
  • 2^(-5) = 0.03125
  • 9^0 = 1 (Whatever number elevated to 0, its value is 1)
  • (6561 * 0,03125 * 1) = 205.03125

And we elevate this to -2:

  • 205.03125^-2 = 2<u>.378810688*10^(-5)</u> or <u>0.00002378810688 </u>

<em>Second part. </em>

  • 2^(-2) = 0.25
  • 3^3 = 27
  • 0.25 / 27 = 9.259259259 * 10^(-3) or 0.00925925925925

And we elevate this to 4:

  • 0.00925925925925^4 = <u>7.350298528 * 10^(-9)</u> or <u>0.000000007350298528 </u>

<em>Third Part. </em>

  • 3^28 = <u>2.287679245 * 10^13</u> or <u>22876792450000</u>

At last, we multiply all the results obtained:

  • 0.00002378810688 * 0.000000007350298528 * 22876792450000 = <u>3.999999999999999999</u> approximately <u>4</u>

<u><em>We approximate the value because the difference to 4 is minimal, which could be obtained if we use all the decimals in each result</em></u>.
