The length of rectangle is 31 yards and width is 24 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Width of rectangle = w

Length of rectangle = w+7

Area of rectangle = 744 square yards

Area = Length * width

744=w(w+7)\\744=w^2+7w\\0=w^2+7w-744\\w^2+7w-744=0

Factorizing the equation

w^2+31w-24w-744=0\\w(w+31)-24(w+31)=0\\(w+31)(w-24)=0

Either,

w+31=0,    =>w= -31

Or,

w-24=0     =>w=24

As width cannot be negative, therefore,

Width = 24 yards

Length = w+7 = 24+7 = 31 yards

The length of rectangle is 31 yards and width is 24 yards.

Use the digits 2, 3, and 5 to create a fraction and a whole number with a product greater than 2
kupik [55]
The fractions which cannbe formed are: 2/3, 3/2, 2/5, 5/2, 3/5 and 5/3.
Now, we find the products with the third number:
2/3*5= 10/3 = 3.33 > 2
3/2*5 = 15 >2= 7.5 > 2
2/5*3= 6/5 (rejected)
5/2*3 = 15/2 > 2
3/5*2= 6/5 (rejected)
5/3*2 = 15/2 = 7.5> 2

Giá trị x thoả mãn x(x − 3) + x − 3 =0 là
svet-max [94.6K]

Here we will use the trial and error method.

  • We will try putting different values of x.
<h3 /><h3>1st of all</h3><h3>x=1</h3>

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto 1(1-3)+1-3=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto (-2)+1-3=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto -2+1-3=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto -2-2=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto -4≠0\end{gathered}

<h2>Now,</h2><h3>x=2</h3>

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto 2(2-3)+2-3=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto 2(-1)+2-3=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto -2+2-3=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto -3≠0\end{gathered}

<h2>Again,</h2><h3>x=3</h3>

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto 3(3-3)+3-3=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto 3(3-3)=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto 3×0=0\end{gathered}

\begin{gathered}\\ \sf\longmapsto 0=0\end{gathered}

<h3>☣Hence, The value of X as 3 satisfies the equation!</h3>

Which pair of undefined terms is used to define a ray?
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

A point and a line.

Further explanation:

Ray is part of the line with one endpoint. Ray is an endless straight path in one direction from a starting point, e.g., .

The arrow above the point shows the direction of the longitudinal beam. The length of the ray cannot be calculated.

Undefined terms are basic figure that is not defined in terms of other figures. The undefined terms (or primitive terms) in geometry are a point, line, and plane.

These key terms cannot be mathematically defined using other known words.

A point represents a location and has no dimension (size).  It is labeled with a capital letter and a dot.

A line is an infinite number of points extending in opposite directions that have only one dimension. It has one dimension. It is a straight path and no thickness.

A plane is a flat surface that contains many points and lines.  A plane extends infinitely in all four directions.  It is two-dimensional.  Three noncollinear points determine a plane, as there is exactly one plane that can go through these points.
