Given:
long stick: 3 4/5 feet
short stick: 3 1/2 feet
convert mix fractions into improper fractions:
3 4/5 = (3*5)+4/5 = 19/5 long stick
3 1/2 = (3*2)+1/2 = 7/2 short stick
19/5 - 7/2 ⇒ (19/5 * 2/2) - (7/2 * 5/5) = 38/10 - 35/10 = (38 - 35)/10 = 3/10
3/10 feet should be cut from the longer stick so that the two walking sticks will be the same length.
3 4/5 ft = 45.6 inches long stick
3 1/2 ft = 42 inches short stick
3/10 ft = 3.6 inches to be cut from long stick
45.6 inches - 3.6 inches = 42 inches
The area of the rectangle is 105 square cm
<h3>How to determine the rectangle area?</h3>
Represent the dimensions of the rectangle with x and y
So, the length of the square would be:
Length = x - 2
Width = y + 6
The areas are then calculated as:
Rectangle = xy
Square = (x -2)(y + 6)
The relationship between the areas is:
(x -2)(y + 6) = 64 + xy
Expand
xy + 6x - 2y - 12 = 64 + xy
This gives
6x - 2y - 12 = 64
Add 12 to both sides
6x - 2y= 76
Divide through by 2
3x - y = 38
By trial by error, we have:
x = 15 and y = 7
The rectangle area is then calculated as:
Rectangle = xy
This gives
Rectangle = 15 * 7
Evaluate
Rectangle = 105
Hence, the area of the rectangle is 105 square cm

Answer:
output: 24, 25, 26, 27, 28
Step-by-step explanation:
The output expression tells you that the output is 23 more than the input.
1 + 23 = 24
2 + 23 = 25
3 + 23 = 26
4 + 23 = 27
5 + 23 = 28
