Width of the rectangle is 9 units
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Let the width of the rectangle be x. Then the length = x - 3. Find dimensions of the rectangle if its area = 54 sq. units
Area of the rectangle = length × width
54 = x (x - 3)
54 = x² - 3x
x² - 3x - 54 = 0
x² + 6x - 9x - 54 = 0 (Using Product Sum rule to factorize)
x(x + 6) - 9(x + 6) = 0
(x + 6)(x - 9) = 0
x = -6, 9 (negative value is neglected)
x = 9 units
You need to divide the 3 blocks of clay by the 4 friends. 3 goes in the dividend and the 4 is outside. 3 divided by 4 is equal to 0.75 or 3/4, so each friend gets 0.75 or 3/4 clay
<span> SO in total, Emily and Sarah had a total of 80
dollars in which Emily had twice as much as Sarah.
Let’s solve to find out how much their Money is.
=> Since the ratio of the given data is 2:1, 2 + 1 =3, so let’s divide 80 by
3
=> 80 / 3 = 26.667 ,
=> Emily has twice as this.
=> 26.667 * 2 = 53.33
=> Sarah has 26.67
Now, Sarah spent 1/3 of her money
=> 26.67 / 3 = 8.89 – her remaining money
Emily spent 17 dollars of her money
=> 53.33 – 17 = 36.33</span>
