A rectangle is cut in half to create two squares that each has an area of 25. What is the perimeter[SIZE=4]A rectangle is cut in half to create two squares that each has an area of 25. What is the perimeter of the original rectangle?
A. 20
B. 25
C. 30
D. 50[/SIZE]
[SIZE=4]Area of a square:
A = s^2
We're given A = 25:
s^2= 25
s = 5
This means the rectangle width is 5.
The rectangle length is 2(5) = 10.
Perimeter of a rectangle:
P = 2l + 2w
P = 2(10) + 2(5)
P = 20 + 10
P = [B]30 (choice C)[/B]

difference between 2 positive numbers is 3 and the sum of their squares is 117difference between 2 positive numbers is 3 and the sum of their squares is 117
Declare variables for each of the two numbers:
[LIST]
[*]Let the first variable be x
[*]Let the second variable be y
[/LIST]
We're given 2 equations:
[LIST=1]
[*]x - y = 3
[*]x^2 + y^2 = 117
[/LIST]
Rewrite equation (1) in terms of x by adding y to each side:
[LIST=1]
[*]x = y + 3
[*]x^2 + y^2 = 117
[/LIST]
Substitute equation (1) into equation (2) for x:
(y + 3)^2 + y^2 = 117
Evaluate and simplify:
y^2 + 3y + 3y + 9 + y^2 = 117
Combine like terms:
2y^2 + 6y + 9 = 117
Subtract 117 from each side:
2y^2 + 6y + 9 - 117 = 117 - 117
2y^2 + 6y - 108 = 0
This is a quadratic equation:
Solve the quadratic equation 2y2+6y-108 = 0
With the standard form of ax2 + bx + c, we have our a, b, and c values:
a = 2, b = 6, c = -108
Solve the quadratic equation 2y^2 + 6y - 108 = 0
The quadratic formula is denoted below:
y = -b ± sqrt(b^2 - 4ac)/2a
[U]Step 1 - calculate negative b:[/U]
-b = -(6)
-b = -6
[U]Step 2 - calculate the discriminant Δ:[/U]
Δ = b2 - 4ac:
Δ = 62 - 4 x 2 x -108
Δ = 36 - -864
Δ = 900 <--- Discriminant
Since Δ is greater than zero, we can expect two real and unequal roots.
[U]Step 3 - take the square root of the discriminant Δ:[/U]
√Δ = √(900)
√Δ = 30
[U]Step 4 - find numerator 1 which is -b + the square root of the Discriminant:[/U]
Numerator 1 = -b + √Δ
Numerator 1 = -6 + 30
Numerator 1 = 24
[U]Step 5 - find numerator 2 which is -b - the square root of the Discriminant:[/U]
Numerator 2 = -b - √Δ
Numerator 2 = -6 - 30
Numerator 2 = -36
[U]Step 6 - calculate your denominator which is 2a:[/U]
Denominator = 2 * a
Denominator = 2 * 2
Denominator = 4
[U]Step 7 - you have everything you need to solve. Find solutions:[/U]
Solution 1 = Numerator 1/Denominator
Solution 1 = 24/4
Solution 1 = 6
Solution 2 = Numerator 2/Denominator
Solution 2 = -36/4
Solution 2 = -9
[U]As a solution set, our answers would be:[/U]
(Solution 1, Solution 2) = (6, -9)
Since one of the solutions is not positive and the problem asks for 2 positive number, this problem has no solution

Find two consecutive integers if the sum of their squares is 1513Find two consecutive integers if the sum of their squares is 1513
Let the first integer be n. The next consecutive integer is (n + 1).
The sum of their squares is:
n^2 + (n + 1)^2 = 1513
n^2 + n^2 + 2n + 1 = 1513
2n^2 + 2n + 1 = 1513
Subtract 1513 from each side:
2n^2 + 2n - 1512 = 0

n = 11, n = -13
Which means the two consecutive odd integer are:

Find two consecutive positive integers such that the difference of their square is 25Find two consecutive positive integers such that the difference of their square is 25.
Let the first integer be n. This means the next integer is (n + 1).
Square n: n^2
Square the next consecutive integer: (n + 1)^2 = n^2 + 2n + 1
Now, we take the difference of their squares and set it equal to 25:
(n^2 + 2n + 1) - n^2 = 25
Cancelling the n^2, we get:
2n + 1 = 25

Let the first integer be x. The next consecutive positive integer is x + 1.
The sum of their squares equals 25. We write this as::
x^2 + (x + 1)^2
Expanding, we get:
x^2 + x^2 + 2x + 1 = 25
Group like terms:
2x^2 + 2x + 1 = 25
Subtract 25 from each side:
2x^2 + 2x - 24 = 0
Simplify by dividing each side by 2:
x^2 + x - 12 = 0
Using our [URL='http://www.mathcelebrity.com/quadratic.php?num=x%5E2%2Bx-12%3D0&pl=Solve+Quadratic+Equation&hintnum=+0']quadratic calculator[/URL], we get x = 3 or x = -4. The problem asks for positive integers, so we discard -4, and use 3.
This means, our next positive integer is 3 + 1 = 4. So we have [B](3, 4) [/B]as our answers.

Jennifer is playing cards with her bestie when she draws a card from a pack of 25 cards numbered froJennifer is playing cards with her bestie when she draws a card from a pack of 25 cards numbered from 1 to 25. What is the probability of drawing a number that is square?
The squares from 1 - 25 less than or equal to 25 are as follows:
[LIST=1]
[*]1^2 = 1
[*]2^2 = 4

So the following 5 cards are squares:

The difference between the squares of two consecutive numbers is 141. Find the numbersThe difference between the squares of two consecutive numbers is 141. Find the numbers
Take two consecutive numbers:
n- 1 and n
Given a difference (d) between the squares of two consecutive numbers, the shortcut for this is:
2n - 1 = d
Proof of this:
n^2- (n - 1)^2 = d
n^2 - (n^2 - 2n + 1) = d
n^2 - n^2 + 2n - 1 = d
2n - 1 = d
Given d = 141, we have
2n - 1 = 141
Add 1 to each side:
2n = 142
Divide each side by 2:
2n/2 = 142/2

Two numbers have a sum of 20. Determine the lowest possible sum of their squares.Two numbers have a sum of 20. Determine the lowest possible sum of their squares.
If sum of two numbers is 20, let one number be x. Then the other number would be 20 - x.
The sum of their squares is:
x^2+(20 - x)^2
Expand this and we get:
x^2 + 400 - 40x + x^2
Combine like terms:
2x^2 - 40x + 400
Rewrite this:
2(x^2 - 20x + 100 - 100) + 400
2(x - 10)^2 - 200 + 400
2(x−10)^2 + 200
The sum of squares of two numbers is sum of two positive numbers, one of which is a constant of 200.
The other number, 2(x - 10)^2, can change according to the value of x. The least value could be 0, when x=10
Therefore, the minimum value of sum of squares of two numbers is 0 + 200 = 200 when x = 10.
If x = 10, then the other number is 20 - 10 = 10.

In our problem, we have a = 998 and b = 2:
