Answer:

w = 7m

l =9 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w = width

l = w+2

A = l*w

63 = (w+2) * w

63 = w^2 +2w

Subtract 63 from each side

0 = w^2 +2w - 63

Factor

What 2 numbers multiply to -63 and add to 2

9*-7 = -63

9-7 = 2

0 = (w +9) ( w-7)

Using the zero product property

w+9 =0     w-7 =0

w = -9        w = 7

Since we cannot have a negative length

w=7

l =w+2 =7+2 = 9

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

32 people came in blue cars and 6 people came in red cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Technically, all 48 people came in red or blue cars, but I'm assuming that's not what the question is asking.

To find how many people came in blue cars, we do 2/3*48 which is equal to 32 people.

To find how many people came in red cars, we do 1/8*48 which is equal to 6 people.

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

%∆C = 249.22%

the percentage increase in the cost of his car insurance is 249.22%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Cost of car insurance last year C1 = £256

Cost of car insurance this year C2 = £894

Percentage increase = change in cost/initial cost × 100%

%∆C = ∆C/C1 × 100%

%∆C = (C2-C1)/C1 × 100%

Substituting the given values;

%∆C = (894-256)/256 × 100%

%∆C = 249.21875%

%∆C = 249.22%

the percentage increase in the cost of his car insurance is 249.22%
