The side length of the square concrete slab if the area is increased by 25% is 5feet

The formula for calculating the area of a square is expressed as:

A =  L² where:

L is the side length of the square

Given the area of the square concrete slab = 20 square feet

20 = L²

L =√20

If the area is increased  by 25%, new area will be:

An = 20 + (0.25*20)

An = 20 + 5

An = 25 sq.ft

Get the new length

An = Ln²

25 =   Ln²

Ln = √25

Ln = 5feet

Hence the side length of the square concrete slab if the area is increased by 25% is 5feet

The Taylors have recorded their weekly grocery expenses for the past 12 weeks and determined that the mean weekly expense was ​$
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

$84.80

Step-by-step explanation:

find the difference between accurate price and written price: 74 - 47 = 27

find written total (before Mrs. Taylor found mistake) by undoing the mean calculation: 82.55 x 12 = $990.60

the total expenses is $27 more than what they thought: 990.60 + 27 = 1017.60

divide accurate total by 12 to find mean: 1017.60 / 12 = $84.80

hope this helps :)

lozanna [386]

Answer:

<h2>Second choice.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given inequality is

-\frac{1}{2}x \geq  4

Let's solve for x

x\leq -4(2)\\x\leq -8

Basically, the solution of the given inquality is set with all real numbers which are equal or less than -8. So, the solution must indicate a blue line starting at -8 pointing to its left.

Therefore, the second choice represents the solution to the given inequality.

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

5,340

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there:)

Amount invested in stock

=5000×0.6=3000

Amount invested in a saving account

5000-3000=2000


The stock increases 9% in the first year

3,000×(1+0.09)=3,270

and loses 4% of its value the second year

3,270×(1−0.04)=3,139.2

Amount of a saving account after two years

2,000×(1+0.049)^(2)=2,200.8


the total amount gained during the 2 years

3,139.2+2,200.8=5,340...answer


Hope it helps
