Find the least number which should be subtracted from 500 to make it a perfect square​

Mathematics

8 0

Answer: 16

Step-by-step explanation:

A perfect square is basically some number multiplied by itself. For example, 4 is a perfect square because 2x2=4.

22 x 22 = 484 (under 500)

23 x 23 = 529 (over 500)

Therefore, the perfect square must be 484.

Subtract 484 from 500:

500 - 484 = 16

16 is the answer :)

2. Tennis rackets can be packaged in cartons holding 2 rackets cach or in
Liula [17]

Answer:

There were 14 cartons of size 2 rackets and 24 cartons of size 3 rackets

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the number of cartons holding 2 rackets is x and the number of cartons holding 3 rackets is y

∵ There are x cartons of 2 rackets

∵ There are y cartons of 3 rackets

∵ They used 38 cartons

∴ x + y = 38 ⇒ (1)

∵ They packed a total of 100 rackets

∴ 2x + 3y = 100 ⇒ (2)

Let us solve the system of equations

→ Multiply equation (1) by -2 to make the coefficients of x in

   the equations equal in values and different is signs

∵ -2(x) + -2(y) = -2(38)

∴ -2x - 2y = -76 ⇒ (3)

→ Add equations (2) and (3)

∴ y = 24

→ Substitute the value of y in equation (1) or (2) to find x

∵ x + 24 = 38

→ Subtract 24 from both sides

∴ x + 24 - 24 = 38 - 24

∴ x = 14

There were 14 cartons of size 2 rackets and 24 cartons of size 3 rackets

HELP PLEASE. A pizza shop charges customers based on the area of the pizza they order. The cost of a pizza in dollars can be rep
san4es73 [151]

For this case we have that the cost of each pizza is given by the following function:

S (r) = 0.1 \pi * r ^ 2

Where:

r: It's the radius of the pizza

IF a pizza cost $26.32 we have:

26.32 = 0.1 \pi * r ^ 2

We cleared the radius, using \pi = 3.14:

\frac {26.32} {0.1} = \pi * r ^ 2\\263.2 = 3.14r ^ 2\\\frac {263.2} {3.14} = r ^ 2\\83.82 = r ^ 2\\r = \pm \sqrt {83.82}

We choose the positive value:

r = 9.15

So, the radius of the pizza is 9.16 \ in

Then, the diameter is: 2r = 2 * 9.15 = 18.30 \ in

Finally, the diameter of the pizza is:18.30 \ in

Answer:

Option B
