Mathematics

Scientific notation is basically a shortcut for writing numbers. Scientists use it all the time if they are writing numbers that are very large or very small. If you encounter numbers that have many zeros at the end, you can use scientific notation to save your time. When using scientific notation, you're allowed to simplify all the zeros that you have in the number by writing the number as a product of a number and a power of 10.

The length of a rectangle is 1 inch less than twice the width. the area is 21 inches^2 what is the length?
ale4655 [162]
Hi.

Formula for area: A = 2l + 2w, where l is the length and w is the width.

Given information:
• l = 2w - 1
• A = 21 in^2

We can plug in our values accordingly and solve for w.

A = 2l + 2w
21 = 2(2w - 1) + 2w
21 = 4w - 2 + 2w
23 = 6w - 2
23 = 6w
3.83 = w

Plug 3.83 for w into 2w - 1 to find length.

2(3.83) - 1
7.66 - 1
6.66

Finally, check your work by plugging your values into the original equation.

21 = 2(6.66) + 2(3.83)
21 = 13.32 + 7.66
21 = 20.98

Answer:
The length is approximately 6.66 inches.
