Answer:

Answer:

The width is 4 units, and the length is 10 units.

Step-by-step.

Step-by-step explanation:

area of rectangle = length * width

Let L = length; let W = width.

"The length is 6 units greater than the width.": L = W + 6

area = LW = 40

Since L = W + 6, we substitute L with W + 6.

(W + 6)W = 40

W^2 + 6W = 40

W^2 + 6W - 40 = 0

(W - 4)(W + 10) = 0

W - 4 = 0 or W + 10 = 0

W = 4 or W = -10

A width cannot be a negative number, so we discard the solution W = -10.

W = 4

L = W + 6 = 4 + 6 = 10

The width is 4 units, and the length is 10 units.

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

.

1) About how much medicine did he make in grams?

Dr. Mann mixed

9.357 g of chemical A,

12.082 g of chemical B,

7.502 g of chemical C

We can determine total amount of medicine that was prepared by Dr. Mann by summing up the chemicals (A,B,C)

=( 9.357grams of A + 12.082grams of B+ 7.502grams of C)

= 28.941 grams in total

The next step is to round up those chemicals value to their nearest tenth as asked by question

Dr. Mann mixed

9.357 g of chemical A= 9.4grams

12.082 g of chemical B,=12.1grams

7.502 g of chemical C =7.5grams

2)Estimate the amount of each chemical by rounding to the nearest tenth of a gram before finding the sum.

Then the sum after rounding up to nearest tenth is

(9.4grams +12.1grams + 7.5grams)

=29 gram
