Answer:

The dimensions of the bar are width = 4.68099 feet and length = 10.06198 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A chocolate bar has a rectangular shape, therefore it's area is given by the following formula:

area = width*length

In this case the length is 0.7 feet longer than twice the width, therefore:

length = 2*width + 0.7

Applying the second equation on the first one and using the data from the question we have:

47.1 = width*(2*width + 0.7)

47.1 = 2*width² + 0.7*width

2*width² + 0.7*width = 47.1

width² + 0.35*width = 23.55

width = \frac{-0.35 \pm \sqrt{0.35^2 -4*1*(-23.55)}}{2*1} = -0.175 \pm 4,85599

width = 4.68099 or width = -5.03099

Since the width can't be negative, it can only be 4.68099 feet.

length = 2*4.68099 + 0.7 = 10.06198 feet.

Eliminating by multiplying <br> X+3y=1<br> -5x+4y=-24
gavmur [86]

Answer:

y = -1         x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

(X+3y=1) 5            Multiply this equation by 5 to cancel out the x

-5x+4y=-24

-5x + 4y= -24

+ 5x + 15y = 5       Add both equations together

19y = -19                Divide both sides by 19

y = -1

Plug -1 for y into one of the equations

x + 3(-1) = 1             Multiply 3(-1)

x - 3 = 1

 + 3 + 3                  Add 3 to both sides

x = 4

Your friend says that 14.5% is same as the fraction 29/200. explain whether your friend is correct or incorrect by comparing the
OlgaM077 [116]

14.5% = 0.145

Step-by-step explanation:

The term 'percent' (%) actually means per 100. So when you say 14.5% it means 14.5 per 100. So when you put that into an equation it actually means:

So when you solve it, 14.5% is actually 0.145 and not 14.5.

Your friend is then incorrect because:

14.5% ≠ 14.5
