Ok so I like to go in steps with these questions- first draw a picture and identify your variables.
W=width
L= 3w-1
Now we know that length times width gets us area so we plug in our variables into the area equation.
200 = w(3w-1)
When you foil that equation you end up with a quadratic : 3w^2-w-200 = 0
Either factor that or use the quadratic formula to get
w= 8.33 and w= -8
Since you can't have a negative dimension you need to use 8.33 and plug it back into your length equation.
Final answer:
w= 8.33ft
l= 23.99ft
*Now I simplified the decimals a little bit so you end up with 199.8ft^2 for the area so just add a few decimals on here and there*
74 is what percent of 95?
74 is P% of 95
Equation: Y = P% * X
Solving our equation for P
P% = Y/X
P% = 74/95
p = 0.7789
Convert decimal to percent:
<span>P% = 0.7789 * 100 = 77.89%

Hope I helped!
Let me know if you need anything else!

Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
because we just multiply the bottom equation by - and we eliminate 7y. now we have -2x=-10 to get x we divide -10 by -2 and get the answer
This is a standard relationship/systems of equations question. Here is how you attack it. Firstly, set up equations to represent the relationships. Ed = 4*Kim That shows that Ed has four times as many pins as Kim. Next, we see that the two have 25 together. So: Ed + Kim = 25 Now we have our two equations. In order to solve, we need to get one of the equations down to one variable. We can achieve this via substitution. The first equation tells us that we can substitute 4*Kim for Ed (in the second equation). So, let's do just that: 4*Kim + Kim = 255*Kim = 25Kim = 5 Using the first equation again, we can solve for Ed: Ed = 4*KimEd = 4*(5)<span>Ed = 20</span>
