The length in feet is (x - 80) feet

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

The area in square feet of a rectangular field is x^2 - 140x + 4800

The width, in feet, is x - 60

To find: length in feet

<em><u>The area of rectangle is given as:</u></em>

\text {area of rectangle }=\text { length } \times \text { width }

Now we can simplify area

area = x^2 - 140x + 4800

-140x can be rewritten as -80x - 60x

area = x^2 -80x -60x + 4800

Taking "x" as common from first two terms and -60 as common from last two terms

area = x(x - 80) -60(x - 80)

Taking (x - 80) as common term

Area = (x - 80)(x - 60)

Substitute area = (x - 80)(x - 60) and width = (x - 60)

(x-80)(x-60)=\text { length } \times(x-60)\\\\length = \frac{(x-80)(x-60)}{(x-60)}

Cancelling (x - 60)

length = (x - 80)

Thus the length in feet is (x - 80) feet

Calculate the compound interest on an investment of R6500 at 7,5% per annum invested for 3 years​
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

Compound interest = Rs 1,575 (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount invested = R.s 6,500

Rate of interest = 7.5% per annum

Number of year = 3 year

Find:

Amount of compound interest

Computation:

Compound interest = P[(1+r)ⁿ - 1]

Compound interest = 6500[(1+7.5%)³ - 1]

Compound interest = 6500[(1+0.075)³ - 1]

Compound interest = 6500[(1.075)³ - 1]

Compound interest = 6500[1.2423 - 1]

Compound interest = 6500[0.2423]

Compound interest = 1574.95

Compound interest = Rs 1,575 (Approx.)

Find the square: (5x - 4y)2 <br><br> (and please put the process of solving the equation)
satela [25.4K]
(5x-4y)^2
(5x-4y)(5x-4y)

Multiply each term in one bracket in turn by the terms in the other bracket

(5x)(5x) = 25x^2
(5x)(-4y)=-20xy
(-4y)(5x)=-20xy
(-4y)(-4y)=16y^2

Put them together we have
25x^2-20xy-20xy-16y^2
25x^2-40xy-16y^2
