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.

Molodets [167]
It takes 8 hours to drive to Joliet, and that's 6 hours more than half the time it takes to drive to Davenport. So, I did 8-6 which equals 2. So 2 hours is half the time it takes to get to Davenport, which means it takes 4 hours to get to Davenport.

The sum of two numbers is 39 and the difference is 3. What are the numbers?
frosja888 [35]

Answer: 21 & 18

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of two numbers is 39

Difference is 3

Let the numbers be x & y

X+y=39........equation 1

X-y=3...........equation 2

X=3+y............equation 3

Substitute equation 3 into equation 1

(3+y)+y=39

3+y+y=39

3+2y=39

2y=39-3

2y=36

Y=36/2

Y=18

Substitute for y in equation 2

X-y=3

X-18=3

X=3+18

X=21

The two numbers are 21 & 18

A Fruit Stand sells 6 oranges for $3.00 and grapefruit for $2.40 people buy 10 oranges and 11 grapefruits much does the fruit sp
Harlamova29_29 [7]
<span>The <u>correct answer</u> is:

$31.40.

Explanation<span>:

Since 6 oranges cost $3.00, we can divide to find the cost of one orange:

3.00/6 = $0.50. Each orange costs $0.50.

If ten oranges are bought, this would cost 10(0.50)=$5.00.

Each grapefruit costs $2.40; 11 of them would cost 11(2.40) = 26.40.

Together the total cost is $5+$26.40 = $31.40.</span></span>
