John has 48 square centimeter tiles he wants to use to create a mosaic. He wants the mosaic to be rectangular with a length that

is 2 centimeters longer than the width.
Which equation could John solve to find w, the greatest width in centimeters he can use for the mosaic?

w(w – 2) = 48
w(w + 2) = 48
2w(w – 2) = 48
2w(w + 2) = 48

The equation that could John solve to find w, the greatest width in centimeters he can use for the mosaic is option B: w(w + 2) = 48.

<h3>What is a system of equations?</h3>

A system of equations is two or more equations that can be solved to get a unique solution. the power of the equation must be in one degree.

The mosaic to be formed is rectangular in shape.

Area of a rectangle = length x width

The length is longer than the width by 2,

So, length = w+2

Area of a rectangle = (w+2) x w

The correct equation is B: w(w + 2) = 48

Rename 5/6 and 5/8 using the least common denominator.
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

5/6 = 20/24

5/8 = 15/24

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the answers because:

1) First, the least common denominator is 24 because 8 x 3 is 24 and 6 x 4 is 24

2) Next, multiply the numerators with the same number you multiplied with the denominator

5 x 3 = 15

5 x 4 = 20

3) Therefore, the answers are:

5/6 = 20/24

5/8 = 15/24

Hope this helps!

Word problem-in a movie script time traveler wanted to save his wife who died the same year. The couple was the dam age. However
drek231 [11]

Represent Age of Time Traveler =========> X

Solve:

x = 3(x - 20 )


Step 1: Simplify Both sides of equation:

x = 3(x - 20 )

x = (3) (x) + (3) ( - 20 ) (Distribute ):

x = 3x + - 60

x = 3x - 60


Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides:

x - 3x = 3x - 60 - 3x

- 2x = - 60


Step 3: Divide both sides by -2:

- 2x / - 2 = - 60 / - 2

x = 30



Answer: Our Time Traveler is 30 years old.




Hope that helps : )
