Answer:

Area = (a² -5a) in²

Perimeter = (4a -10) in

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the rectangle be a.

Given that, its width is 5 in less than the length.

So,

length ⇒ a

width ⇒ (a - 5)

First, let's find the area of the rectangle.

Area = length × width

Area = a ( a - 5 )

<em>Solve the brackets.</em>

Area = <u>(a² -5a) in²</u>

<u />

Now, let us find the perimeter of the rectangle.

Perimeter = 2 ( l + w )

Perimeter = 2 ( a + a - 5 )

Perimeter = 2 ( 2a - 5 )

Perimeter = <u>(4a -10) in</u>

In one year, Michael earned $6300 as a work study in college. He invested part of the money at 9% and the rest at 7%. If he rece
Nitella [24]
Let x represent invested money at 9% and y at 7%
Now we write system:
x+y = 6300
1.09*x + 1.07* y = 6300 + 493 = 6793

1.09x + 1.09y = 6867
Here we multiplied first equation with 1.09 and now we will subtract second from first:

0.02y = 74
y = 3700
x = 6300-3700 = 2600

Michael invested 2600 at 9% and 3700 at 7%
