The length of a rectangle exceeds its width by 4

Mathematics
1 answer:
Thepotemich [5.8K]2 years ago
8 0

Answer:

length = 10 in, width = 6 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be x.

Then, length = (x+4)

Area = 60 in²

Area of a rectangle = width × length

60 = x × (x+4)

60 = x² + 4x

x² + 4x - 60 = 0

Splitting the middle term :-

x² + 10x - 6x - 60 = 0

x (x + 10) - 6 ( x + 10) =0

(x + 10) ( x - 6)

x = -10 (doesn't fulfill our requirement)

x = 6

So, width = 6 in

length = 6+4 = 10 in

15 men can do a piece of work in 80 days. If 5 more men are added, how long will it take to complete same piece of work?​
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an inverse proportion.

men = k / Time         So first we need to find k

k = men * Time         Substitute values

k = 15*80

k = 1200  Notice the units are man days.

Now what happens if we increase the number of men to 20? What happens to the number of days.

20 = 1200 / time          Multiply both sides by time

20*time = 1200            Now divide by 20

time = 1200/20

Answer: time = 60 days

Johnnas reading rate is 150 words per minute she is reading a 364 page book that has about 275 words on each page at this rate w
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

11 hrs 1 min (i think so based on math)

Step-by-step explanation:

If Johnna's reading rate is 150 words per min and there are 364 pages with about 275 words, you need to multiply 364 and 275 to get 100100 and divide that by 150 to get 667.3333333 round to the nearest tenth which will give you 667.3 and divide that by 60 because there are 60 minutes in an hour to get 11.12222222 and round that to the nearest tenth to get 11.1 which means it will take Johnna 11 hours and 1 minute to read the book.  I hope this is correct I'm really sorry if it isn't. :P
