Area of rectangle = length × width
300 = (x+10) × x
300 = 10x + x^2
Now we have the equation y=x^2 + 10x - 300
We can factor this equation to get our zeroes, which are:
-5(1+sqrt(13)),
5(sqrt(13)-1)

We only use the positive zero because we can't have a negative dimension.

Your width would be:
5(sqrt(13)-1)

Your length would be:
5(sqrt(13)-1) + 10

Find the value of (3 + 4)2
elena55 [62]

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

We solve this by using 2 to open the bracket

(3+4)2 is the same as 2(3+4)

2(3)+2(4)

=6+8

=14

OR

(3+4)2 is the same as 2(3+4)

So we can solve the one inside the bracket first

=2(7)=14

14.5 hours/14 hours 30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The distance between the two cities is 7.25•100=725 because you multiply the scale distance by the scale.
  • The number hours is 725/50=14.5 hours because you divide the distance by 50 (the miles per hour).

Write the expanded notation for 15,729?
pshichka [43]

Step-by-step explanation:

15,729 = 10 000 + 5 000 + 700 + 20 + 9

= (1 x 10000) + (5 x 1000) + (7 x 100) + (2 x 10) + (9 x 1)

We can also write it like this :

(1 x 10⁴) + (5 x 10³) + (7 x 10²) + (2 x 10¹) + (9 x 10⁰)
