Answer:

Length = 7 ft and width = 4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that, the area of a rectangular carpet is 28 square feet. The length is three feet more then the width.

<u>To find the length and width</u>

Let x be the width the length = x + 3

Area  of carpet = Length * Width

28 = (x + 3) * x

x² + 3x - 28 = 0

x² + 7x - 4x - 28 = 0

x(x + 7) -4(x + 7) = 0

(x + 7)(x - 4) = 0

x = -7 or x = 4

Therefore width = 4 ft then length = 4 + 3 = 7 ft

Select all the correct answers. Which two inequalities can be used to find the solution to this absolute value inequality? 3|x +
ziro4ka [17]

The absolute value inequality can be decomposed into two simpler ones.

x < 0

x > -8

<h3></h3><h3>Which two inequalities can be used?</h3>

Here we start with the inequality:

3|x + 4| - 5 < 7

First we need to isolate the absolute value part:

3|x + 4| < 7 + 5

|x + 4| < (7 + 5)/3

|x + 4| < 12/3

|x + 4| < 4

The absolute value inequality can now be decomposed into two simpler ones:

x + 4 < 4

x + 4 > - 4

Solving both of these we get:

x < 4 - 4

x > -4 - 4

x < 0

x > -8

These are the two inequalities.

spin [16.1K]

Answer:

130 pieces of candy in 5 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

234/9 equals 26, that means there would be 26 pieces of candy in 9 bags, therefore 26x5 equals 130, and just to make sure, divide 130/26 to check if its wrong, but it should be 130. :) hope this helps you out!
