Ok I think it means that the length l of the rectangle is 2 m more than is width w...
The area is A=l*w=(w+2)*w=80
so: w^{2} +2w-80=0
Solving this equation (using the quadratic formula) you get 2 solutons. The only acceptable is the positive one, i.e. w=8 m, the length will then be l=w+2=8+2=10m.

Andrei [34K]

Answer: 15 crocodriles

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the ratio is 4:3

This means that for each 4 hippos, we have 3 cocodriles.

We know that there are 20 hippos.

How many groups of 4 hippos we have?

n = 20/4 = 5

So we have 5 groups of 4 hippos, this means that we also have 5 groups of 3 crocodiles, then we have:

3*5 = 15 crocodiles

What is the angle of ABF?
Serggg [28]
<h3>Answer:  125</h3>

========================================

Explanation:

Ignore lines BC and FE. It might help to redraw the figure without those lines present. Refer to the diagram below. Doing this is optional if you can spot what's going on without having to erase those lines.

Notice how angles 1 and 3 are congruent corresponding angles, due to lines FJ and DC being parallel.

Since angle 3 is 55 degrees,  angle 1 is also 55 degrees.

--------------

Once we determine angle 1, we subtract from 180 because angle ABF is supplementary to angle 1 (aka angle ABJ)

In other words,

(angle ABJ) + (angle ABF) = 180

angle ABF = 180 - (angle ABJ)

angle ABF = 180 - (angle 1)

angle ABF = 180 - (55)

angle ABF = 125 degrees
