It is easier to tackle this by writing it in algebraic form:
2a - 9 = b
Where a is a number smaller than 40 and b is square.
There are way more numbers less than 40 than there are relevant square numbers, so it's best to solve this for a:
2a = b+9
a = (b+9)/2
b can be 1, 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100...
If b is even, then (b+9)/2 will not divide evenly, so this limits us to 1, 9, 25, 49 and 81
For 81, (b+9)/2 = 45 which is more than 40, so b can only be 1, 9, 25 or 49.
Plugging these into the equation means that a can be 5, 9, 17 or 29
Really ! To square a number represented by anything inside a square-root sign, take away the square-root sign. The square of [ sqrt(792) ] is 792 .
10x10= 100 6x6= 36 100-36= 64
An odd number multiplied by another odd number will always equal an odd number. Therefore odd2 = odd x odd = odd number. eg 32 = 3 x 3 = 9. Take away 1 and you will have on even number.
subtraction means you have to take away from the number
Pythagoras' theorem is basically a method to find a missing length of a triangle. So you have side A, B and c. Side c is opposite the right angle in the triangle (right angled triangle) If you square A and B and add them together you will get a number. You then square route that number and that will be the length of side C. As it is opposite the right angle it will be the longest side. If you want to find one of the shorter sides for example A you square C and take B away from it. You then square route this number. If you have a scientific calculator there will be a square and square route symbol. The square symbol is a little two and the square route one is like a tick but the top goes across into a line, if that makes sense. Hope this has helped.
There is no such number.
The closest square number will be as close to 9999 as you like. For example, 99.999 square = 9999.800001 (0.800001 away) 99.995 square = 9999.000025 (0.000025 away) You could get closer still. The nearest PERFECT square, however, is 10,000.

10x10= 100 6x6= 36 100-36= 64
62 = 36 1 squared = 1 36-1= 35
Assuming that the question is double a number is 3 more than THE number, let the original number be x then double the number (= 2x) is 3 more than the number (= x+3) So solve 2x = x + 3 Take x away from each side: x = 3
Gravity is reduced by the inverse of the square of the distance between the two bodies. Double the distance reduce the gravity by one quarter.
353, each time you double the number then take 1 away.
7 11 19 35 67 131 259 515... Double the last number then take away 3 for the next number.

I think the sequence is square the first number, add two, take away one, square that number, add two, take away one, square that number. 12 = 1, 1 plus 2 = 3, 3 minus 1 = 2, 22 = 4, 4 plus 2 = 6, 6-1 = 5, 52 = 25. This would mean that the next number in the sequence is 27 because the next step would be to add two.
