A = l × w. Substitute 72 into A and fill in the rest of the equation.
w = l - 1. Plug l - 1 into w
72 = l × (l - 1). Multiply l by (l - 1)
72 = l^2 - l. Subtract 72 from each side.
0 = l^2 - l - 72. Factor.
0 = (l + 8) (l - 9). Set each term equal to zero.
(l + 8) = 0. Subtract 8 from each side.
l = -8. Length cant be a negative number so let's try the other term.
(l - 9) = 0. Add 9 to each side.
l = 9. The length is 9.
Earlier we stated that the width is one less than the length, therefore, the width is 9 - 1 = 8.
The width is 8 units.
You would have 31 with equal groups
Answer:
- 100
- 80
- 100
- 80
x = 10
y = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the vertical angle theorem to solve for most of this problem. We know that 1/3 will have the same measure and so will 4/2. We can create an equation to solve for 1 and 3.
10x = 100
x = 10
We aren't given angle 4 so we are going to have to solve that ourselves. We can create an equation knowing that 4 and 3 will create a supplementary angle.
100 + z = 180
z = 80
Now, that we have angle 4, we know that angle 2 will have the same measure because they are vertical angles. Now to find the value of y, we can take the angle measure and solve for it.
10y + 20 = 80
10y = 60
y = 6
Best of Luck!
i can help, but you need to write the whole question..
