Width of the rectangle is 12 cm.

Solution:

The length of a rectangle is 4 cm more than its width , and the area of the rectangle is 96 cm². Find the width of the rectangle.

Given data:

Let x be width of the rectangle.

Length of the rectangle = (x + 4) cm

Area of the rectangle = 96 cm²

length × breadth = 96

(x+4)\times x =96

x^2+4x=96

Subtract 96 from both sides.

x^2+4x-96=0

Let us factor the polynomial.

x^2+8x-12x-96=0

Take x common in 1st two terms and -12 common in next two terms.

x(x+8)-12(x+8)=0

Now, take (x + 8) common in both terms.

(x+8)(x-12)=0

x + 8 = 0 and x - 12 = 0

x = -8 and x = 12

Dimension cannot be in negative terms, so ignore x = -8.

Width = 12 cm

Width of the rectangle is 12 cm.

Marissa bought a skirt on sale for $8.45 less that 60% off the original price. She paid $9.55 for the skirt. What was the origin
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

$23.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the original price by p.  

The sale price is (100% - 60%), or 40%, of p:  

$9.55 = 0.40p

Dividing both sides by 0.40 results in:

p = $23.88 (rounded up from $23.875).
