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.

Estimate a 15% tip on a dinner bill of $49.35 by first rounding the bill amount to the nearest ten dollars.
inysia [295]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  $7.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Rounded to the nearest $10, the $49.35 bill becomes $50.

We can find 10% of that amount by moving the decimal point to the left. 10% of $50 is $5.00.

Then 5% of $50 is half of 10%, so is $5/2 = $2.50.

The estimated tip of 15% is the sum of 10% and 5% of the bill, so is ...

  15%($50) = 10%($50) +5%($50) = $5.00 +2.50 = $7.50

The estimated 15% tip is $7.50.
