Suppose that the area of a square is eight times its perimeter. find the length of a side of the square.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

We Know, perimeter of square = 4a
Area of square = a²

Now, A.T.Q,
8*4a = a²
32a = a²
a²/a = 32
a = 32

So, side should be 32

Hope this helps!

point O lies in the interior of angle MNP. if the measure of MNO is x^2 + 10x, the measure of ONP is x^2 - 2x , and the measure

Triss [41]

Answer:

x = 6; ∠ONP = 24°

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Find the value of x

$\begin{array}{rcl}\angle MNP & = & \angle MNO + \angle ONP\\3x^{2} + 12 & = & x^{2} + 10x + x^{2} - 2x\\3x^{2} + 12 & = & 2x^{2} + 8x\\x^{2} + 12 & = & 8x\\x^{2} -8x + 12 & = & 0\\(x - 2)(x - 6) & = & 0\\\end{array}$

$x = 2 \text{ or }x = 6$

2. Find the measures of the angles

(a) x = 2

∠ ONP = x² - 2x = 2² - 2(2) = 4 - 4 = 0

This answer does not make sense because O lies in the interior of ∠MNP.

We disregard x = 2.

(b) x = 6

∠ ONP = x² - 2x = 6² - 2(6) = 36 - 12 = 24

The coffee counter charges ?"$11.00" per pound for kenyan french roast coffee and ?"$13.00" per pound for sumatra coffee. How mu

zloy xaker [14]

Answer: The answer is 13 ponds of each type should be used.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the coffee counter charges $11.00 per pound for kenyan french roast coffee and $13.00 per pound for sumatra coffee. We are to find the quantity of each type that should be used to make a 26 pound blend that sells for $12.00 per pound.

Let 'x' pound and 'y' pound of kenyan french roast coffee and sumatra coffee be used in the mixture of 26 pound.

So, we have

$x+y=26,~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~(A)\\\\11x+13y=12\times 26.~~~~~~~~~~(B)$
