Answer:
L=21.6in and w=13.6
Step-by-step explanation:
If the length is 8 inches longer than its width, we can write the width as "w" and the length as the width w+ 8
Area is (width)(Length) = (width)(width+8)
W
----------

| | L = w+8

-----------
A = (w+8)(w)
A = w2 + 8w = 295.
(Problem states that area is 295 sq in)
Need to solve this quadratic equation
w2 +8y - 295 = 0
Factor:
(w - 13.64) (w + 21.64) = 0
So
w - 13.64 = 0. or. w + 21.64= 0
Solve these and get
w = 13.64. or. w = -21.64
Only one that makes sense in real life is the poitive one.
So the dimensions are
Width = 13.64 inches
Length = 21.64 inches
Answer:
£2.38
Step-by-step explanation:
2.5 cost £1.40
4.25 cost £ x
so x=(4.25*1.40)/2.5=5.95/2.5=£2.38
Answer:
2nd option
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c
Given
6x + 2y = 28 ( subtract 6x from both sides )
2y = - 6x + 28 ( divide the terms by 2 )
y = - 3x + 14 ← in slope- intercept form
Answer:
Yes, the ratios do form a proportion.
Answer:
KL = 16
Step-by-step explanation:
For this problem, JL is the sum of KL and JK. So we can say this:
JK + KL = JL
( 3x + 6 ) + ( 5x + 6 ) = 28
8x + 12 = 28
8x = 16
x = 2
So, now we can find KL:
5x + 6 = ?
5(2) + 6 = ?
10 + 6 = ?
16 = ?
So the length of KL is 16.
Cheers.
