Answer:

Width = 26 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangle is:

area = (length*width)

416 = a*b

a = b/2  + 3

a = length

b = width

then:

416 = (b/2 + 3) (b)

416 = b*b/2 + b*3

416 = b²/2 + 3b

0 = b²/2 + 3b - 416

b = {-(+3)±√((3²)-(4*1/2*-416))} / (2*1/2)

b = {-3±√(9+832)} / 1

b = {-3±√841}

b = -3±29

only take the positive value becuse is a natural number

b = -3+29

b = 26 inches

a = b/2 + 3

a = 26/2 + 3

a = 13 + 3

a = 16 inches

Check:

416 = 16 * 26

the width of the morros in shannon's bathroom is 4/9 its length. The area of the mirror is 576 square inches. What are the dimen
fredd [130]
W=4L/9

A=LW, using W found above gives us

A=L(4L/9)

A=4L^2/9  and we were told that A=576 so

4L^2/9=576  multiply both sides by 9

4L^2=5184  divide both sides by 4

L^2=1296 take the square root of both sides

L=36, and we know that W=4L/9 so

W=4(36/9)=16

So the dimensions are: width=16in and length=36in
