Let the width be w, then length = 2w - 1
Area = length times width = w(2w - 1) = 21.
Thus, 2w^2 - w = 21 or 2w^2 - w - 21 = 0
Solving the quadratic equation gives that w = 3.5.
Therefore, width is 3.5 ft and length is 2(3.5) - 1 = 6 ft.
Answer:
4 is always correct
Step-by-step explanation:
1/10 of 1,700,000 km² is 170,000 km² .
First of all why is there 2 similar equation connected to one another?
Second in order to solve this all you need to do is plug in the number and solve for x
For 485
85x+60=485
85x=420
X=5
Do the same thing and you get 3
