Answer:
B) First, find two areas using (4m x 10m = 40m2) and (8m x 3m = 24m2). Next, add (40m2 + 24m2 = 64m2).
Step-by-step explanation:
Samuel should is looking to find the area of his basement in order to cover it with carpet.
An area is calculated by multiplying two dimensions (so answers A and D are not it).
Best solution is to divide the area into two large rectangles then ADD them together to get the total area.
The only scenario where he could have subtracted something based on his plan is if he would have multiplied the 10m by the 12m then subtracted the area that is not part of his basement (7mx8m). He would have achieved the same result of course, but by going a different way.
So discriminant gives us 3 possibilites connected with result of the equation b^2-4ac. If it is bigger than zero, there are 2 solutions, if answer is exactly 0, then there is one answer and if the number is lower than 0, there are no solutions.
Discriminant of your quadratic equation is (-4)^2-4*1*5=16-20=-4, so there are no solutions.
5/8 I believe. You can divide both by 9
Answer:
10.3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the given points be the endpoints of a right triangle. The horizontal change in x is from 4 to -5 and is negative 9; the vertical change in y is from -2 to+ 3 and is +5.
The desired distance is found using the Pythagorean theorem:
d = √(9² + 5²) = √106, or 10.3 (to the nearest tength)
