Answers

\sf {5a^2+b~is~\boxed{\bf{prime}}}

It is prime because it has no common factors in 5a^2 and b.

The answer is A.
\left[\begin{array}{ccc}Prime\end{array}\right] is the correct answer.

What is the length of side s of the square shown below?

Answers

Answer:

3√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras says s²+s²=6²

so

2s² = 36

s = √18 = √9·2 = √3²·2 = 3√2

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonal splits the square into 2 right triangles with hypotenuse 6

Using Pythagoras' identity in one of the right triangles.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

s² + s² = 6²

2s² = 36 ( divide both sides by 2 )

s² = 18 ( take the square root of both sides )

s = √(18) = √(9(2)) = √(9) × √(2) = 3√(2) → C

Tahmar knows the formula for simple interest is I = Prt, where I represents the simple interest on an amount of money, P, for t years at r rate. She transforms the equation to isolate P : P = . Using this formula, what is the amount of money, P, that will generate $20 at a 5% interest rate over 5 years?

Answers

Answer: $80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The simple interest generated after 5 years = $20

The rate of interest =5%

In decimal, the rate of interest (r)= 0.05

Let P be the principal amount, which Tahmar invested.

The given formula to find simple interest is

I=Prt\n\n\Rightarrow P=(I)/(rt)\n\n\text{On substituting the given values, we have}\n\n\Rightarrow P=(20)/(0.05*5)\n\n\Rightarrow P=80

Hence, the principal amount which he invested = $80

The answer is $80 for this question.
