<u>Answer:</u>

28 feet

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We know that the ratio of the longer side of a rectangle to its shorter side is 4 to 3.

The length of the shorter side of the rectangle is 21ft and we are to find the length of its longer side.

For that, we can use the ratio method:

\frac{4}{3} = \frac{x}{21}

x=\frac{4}{3} *21

x=28

Therefore, the length of the longer side is 28 feet.

Answer:

28 ft


Step-by-step explanation:

Let longer side of rectangle be L and the shorter side be  S, thus we can write the ratio:

\frac{L}{S}=\frac{4}{3}


<em>Now putting 21 into S, we solve for L:</em>

\frac{L}{21}=\frac{4}{3}\\3L=4*21\\3L=84\\L=\frac{84}{3}=28


Hence, length of longer side is 28 ft.

the way you can solve this is by removing all numbers in front of the selected number(in this case, 2 should be removed) then change all numbers behind to 0.

julia puts her stickers into arrays in an album. some of her stickers are animal stickers. there are a different number of stick
lina2011 [118]

The total number of stickers :

Page 1 : 28

Page 2 : 24

Page 3 : 72

Page 4 : 48

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

There are several properties in integer multiplication operations

  • 1. closed property

Multiplication between integers will produce integers too

  • 2. commutative property

a x b = b x a

  • 3. associative property

ax (bxc) = (axb) xc

  • 4. identity

ax1 = 1 x a = a

  • 5. distributive  property

* addition

ax (b + c) = axb + axc

* substraction

ax (b-c) = axb - axc

We can use facts to solve multiplication problems

for example :

6 x 7 = (5 x 7) + ( 1 x 7) = 42

we can break facts with 6 into  5s and 1s facts from multiplication above

julia puts her stickers into arrays in an album

From picture (attached) we can find the total number of stickers on each page with 1s,2s,3s and 5s facts

  • Page 1 : 4 x 7 = (2 x 7) + ( 2 x 7) = 14 + 14 = 28
  • Page 2 : 4 x 6 = (1 x 6) + (3 x 6) = 6 + 18 = 24
  • Page 3 : 8 x 9 = ( 3 x 9) + (5 x 9) = 27 + 45 = 72
  • Page 4 : 8 x 6 = (3 x 6) + (5 x 6) = 18 + 30 = 48

Using the quadratic equation formula to solve 7x^2-x=7, what are the values of x
Gennadij [26K]

quadratic formula:

x = <u>-b ± √(b² - 4ac)</u>

             2a

7x² - x = 7

subtract 7 from both sides:

7x² - x - 7 = 0

plug values into the quadratic formula:

x = <u>-(-1) ± √((-1)²- 4(7)(-7))</u>

               2(7)

simplify:

x = <u>1 ± √(197)</u>

           14
