Answer:

w = 19

L = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

L = w - 13

a = lw

114 = w(w - 13)

114 = w² - 13w

w² - 13w - 114

(w - 9) (w + 6)

w ≠ -6 (a length cannot be negative)

w = 19

L = 19 - 13

L = 6

here is ur answer dear frnd

let width = x cm

so length = x - 13 cm

According to question ,

Area = length × breadth

114 = x( x-13)

114= x^2 - 13 x

x^2 -13x - 114 =0

x^2 -19x + 6x -114 =0

x(x-19) + 6(x- 19)= 0

(x-19)(x+6)= 0

take x - 19 = 0

so x = 19

take x+6 = 0

that gives x= -6 ( not possible)

so width = 19 cm

and length = 19- 13 = 6 cm

What are the values of m and n in the matrix addition below?
Aleksandr [31]

ANSWER

The correct answer is m=45,n=12.

<u>EXPLANATION</u>

We were given the matrix equation;

\left[\begin{array}{cc}n-1&6\\-19&m+3\end{array}\right] +\left[\begin{array}{cc}-1&0\\16&-8\end{array}\right] =\left[\begin{array}{cc}10&6\\-3&40\end{array}\right].


We must first simplify the Left Hand Side of the equation by adding corresponding entries.


\left[\begin{array}{cc}n-1+-1&6+0\\-19+16&m+3-8\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}10&6\\-3&40\end{array}\right].


That is;


\left[\begin{array}{cc}n-2&6\\-3&m-5\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}10&6\\-3&40\end{array}\right].

Since the two matrices are equal, their corresponding entries are also equal. we equate corresponding entries and solve for m and n.


This implies that;


n-2=10


We got this equation from row one-column one entry of both matrices.


n=12


Also, the row three-column three entries of both matrices will give us the equation;


m-5=40


m=45


Hence the correct answer is m=45,n=12.


The correct option is option 2
