No, actually the method is not correct. Adiya needed to take x2 and subtract it from 20x. she would then get 6 = 18x. Have in mind also that she needed to divide 18. So 6 = 18x turns into 6=X. That is why is incorrect

Answer:

Adiya’s method is not correct. To form a perfect square trinomial, the constant must be isolated on one side of the equation. Also, the coefficient of the term with an exponent of 1 on the variable is used to find the constant in the perfect square trinomial. Adiya should first get the 20x term on the same side of the equation as x2. Then she would divide 20 by 2, square it, and add 100 to both sides.

A field with an area of 2880 ft^2 has the shape of a rectangle, whose length is 12 ft larger than its width. Find the dimensions
tiny-mole [99]

ANSWER

w=48,l=60

EXPLANATION

Let the width of the field be, w , then,

the length of the field will be:

l = 12 + w

The area of a rectangle is

Area = lw

This implies that:

w(12 + w) = 2880

Expand

{w}^{2}  + 12w = 2880

{w}^{2}  + 12w  -  2880 = 0

(x + 60)(x - 48) = 0

This implies that,

w =  - 60 \: w = 48

The dimensions are positive, the width is 48 and the length is 12+48=60

Juan Ramirez sells suits in a major department store on weekends. He earns a commission of 5 percent on the first ten suits, and
Zepler [3.9K]
So, the first 10 suits came with a commission of 5%, so for each suit it was:

250*5%

this is \frac{250*5}{100} = \frac{25*5}{10} = \frac{25}{2} =12.5

but this counts for 10 suits, so together his commssion was 10*12.5=125 dollars

and the "extra" 3 suits came with a comittion of 5+3 percent, so 8 percent, which is


 
 \frac{250*8}{100} = \frac{25*8}{10} = \frac{25*4}{5} =20

for each suit, and 60 in total.

his total comission was 125+60=185 dollars.
