The described picture frame can be visualized into two separate parts. The first area is equal to the area using the outermost dimensions for the length and width.
Area = Length x Height
Area = (20 in) x (14 in)
Area = 280 in²
We are given that the area is only equal to 192 in². We subtract this value from the computed area.
Difference = 280 in² - 192 in²
difference = 88 in²
This area is equal to the area of the hollow space inside the frame. That is equal to,
height = 20 in - 2x
length = 14 in - 2x
The area,
88 = (20 - 2x)(14 - 2x)
Simplify the right hand side of the equation.
88 = 280 - 68x + 4x²
Divide the equation by 4,
22 = 70 - 17x + x²
Transposing,
x² - 17x - 48 = 0
The factors of the equation is 58.2.
Thus, the thickenss is equal to 58.2 in
The answer is: Each bag of flour weighs 1,32 kg.
If we the total weight of the bags is given, and we know both the number of bags of flour and sugar, and we also know the weight of each bag of sugar, then we have to find the unknown, which is X. 30 times X plus 4 times the weight of a bag of sugar would equal 42.6kg. Next step is to put the unknown on one side and the known values on the other side. We have 30 times X equals 42.6 minus 4 times 0.75.
To find X we need to divide the value with 30, or to sum up
30X + 4*0.75 = 42.6
30X + 3 = 42.6
X = (42.6 - 3) / 30
X = 1.32 kg
It will be negative 2,cause your equation is already in general form but we can't have a negative on a, so we should changed it on their opposite sign, so 2 will be negative

Step-by-step explanation:
Let as revise the Pythagoras Theorem
In the right triangle ABC, where ∠B is a right angle (AC is the hypotenuse, Ab and BC are the legs of the right angle)
- (AC)² = (AB)² + (BC)²
- (AB)² = (AC)² - (BC)²
- (BC)² = (AC)² - (AB)²
If BD is drawn perpendicular to AC, we can use these rules
- (AB)² = AD × AC
- (BC)² = CD × AC
- (BD)² = AD × CD
- AB × BC = BD × AC
In Δ WYZ
∵ m∠WYZ = 90°
- By using Pythagoras Theorem
∴ (WZ)² = (WY)² + (YZ)²
∵ WY = 4 units
∵ YZ = 3 units
∵ WZ = c units
∴ c² = (4)² + (3)²
∴ c² = 16 + 9 = 25
- Take √ for both sides
∴ c = 5
In Δ XWZ
∵ m∠XWZ = 90°
∵ WY ⊥ XZ
- We can use the rule (WZ)² = ZY × ZX
∵ (WZ)² = ZY × ZX
∵ WZ = 5 units
∵ ZY = 3 units
∵ ZX = (3 + a) units
∴ (5)² = 3(3 + a)
∴ 25 = 9 + 3a
- Subtract 9 from both sides
∴ 16 = 3a
- Divide both sides by 3
∴ a =
The value of a is
