Decrease of 25% means only 855 people? Okay, so you want to backtrack. If you divide by 25% you’re going to get what it was for a 75% decrease. So divide by .75 instead. 855/.75 = 1140 unemployed residents last month

The area of a rectangle is 32a^3b^4 square units. The length is 4a^2b. Find the width. show your work
kaheart [24]

Answer:

The answer to your question is width = 8ab³

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Area = 32a³b⁴ u²

length = 4a²b   u

Formula

Area of a rectangle = width x length

Solve for width

                           width = \frac{Area}{length}

Substitution

                          width = \frac{32a^{3}b^{4}}{4a^{2}b}

Simplify using rules of exponents, just remember that in a division we subtract the exponents and divide the coefficients normally.

                          width = 8 a²b³
