Area if square increase by 69% find sides % increased by?..

Answer / nikku007

If the area is increased bt 69 % means that
suppose area was earlier 100 i.e(10*10) now the area is 169 i.e (13*13)
so the increment in length is 3 units
so percentage increase is 30 percent

Area if square increase by 69% find sides % increased by?..

Answer / ayusha

Let the original area be A, and let the side of the original square be ll
therefore:
AA = l2l2
If the area increased by 69%, this means our new area is
(1+0.69)A(1+0.69)A that is (1.69)A(1.69)A
Let the new side be xx, therefore:
x2=1.69Ax2=1.69A
and because:
A=l2A=l2:
therefore:
x2=1.69l2x2=1.69l2
Taking the square root of both sides we get:
x=1.3lx=1.3l
x=(1+0.3)lx=(1+0.3)l
Therefore the increase in length is 0.3l0.3l or 3030 of the original length.

Alice and Bob play the following coins-on-a-stack game. 20 coins are stacked one above the other. One of them is a special (gold) coin and the rest are ordinary coins. The goal is to bring the gold coin to the top by repeatedly moving the topmost coin to another position in the stack. Alice starts and the players take turns. A turn consists of moving the coin on the top to a position i below the top coin (0 = i = 20). We will call this an i-move (thus a 0- move implies doing nothing). The proviso is that an i-move cannot be repeated; for example once a player makes a 2- move, on subsequent turns neither player can make a 2-move. If the gold coin happens to be on top when it's a player's turn then the player wins the game. Initially, the gold coinis the third coin from the top
