Alright in this one, you are going to need to factor.
The width is x
The length is 2x-4
To find the area of a rectangle is L*W
so (2x-4)(x) when distributed is 2x^2 -4x
Then put that in the equation and you have:
2x^2 -4x = 96
2x^2 -4x -96 = 0
2x^2+12x-16x-96=0
3x(x+4)-4(x+4)=0
(3x-4)=0
(x+4)=0
x=-4
<u>x=3/4</u>
Since length isn't negative
we will use <u>3/4 as x.
</u>
Width= 0.75 ft
Length= 1.5
The first thing you should do in this case is to know that you can rewrite the expression.
We have then:
root (50)
Rewriting:
root (2 * 25)
5 * root (2)
Which belongs to the set of irrational numbers.
Answer:
Irrational numbers.
There are 33/20 or 1.65 pounds left.
Given:
4 3/4 pounds of clay
1 1/10 pounds of clay for a cup
2 pounds of clay for a jar
Convert the mixed fraction into fractions.
4 3/4 = (4*4+3)/4 = 19/4
1 1/10 = (1*10+1)/10 = 11/10
2 = 2/1
19/4 - 11/10 = (19/4 *5/5) - (11/10 * 2/2) = 95/20 - 22/20
= (95-22)/20 = 73/20 or 3.65 pounds after making a cup
73/20 - 2/1 = 73/20 - (2/1 * 20/20) = 73/20 - 40/20 = 73 - 40 / 20 = 33/20 OR 1.65 pounds left after making a jar.
We can also convert the fractions into decimal numbers.
19/4 = 4.75
11/10 = 1.10
2/1 = 2.00
4.75 - 1.1 - 2 = 1.65 pounds left.
