Answer:

width =19 inches

length= 27 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let width be w inches so according to given scenario as length is 8 more than width so the equation becomes

l=8+w inches (Equation 1)

Area of Rectangle= L*w

Area= 513

L*w=513    (Equation 2)

Putting l's value from equation 1 in equation 2

(8+w)w=513

w^2+8w-513=0

Making Factors

w^2+27w-19w-513=0

w(w+27)-19(w+27)=0

(w-19)(w+27)=0

w=19, w=-27

as width cannot be negative so if we only consider w=19 then

l=8+19

l=27

svlad2 [7]

Answer:

7.65 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the distance that diver will travel.  

We have been given that a scuba diver is exploring at an elevation of -12.2 meters. As the diver rises to the surface, she plans to stop and rest briefly at a reef that has an elevation of -4.55 meters. We are asked to find the distance that diver will travel.

The initial elevation plus x will be equal to -4.55 meters. We can represent our given information in an equation as:

-12.2+x=-4.55

-12.2+12.2+x=-4.55+12.2

x=7.65

Therefore, the scuba diver will travel a vertical distance of 7.65 meters.

A mountain climber ascends 800 feet per hour from his original position. After 6 hours, his final position is 11,600 feet above
coldgirl [10]
<span>To find the beginning position, we need to know how many feet the climber has ascended in the 6-hour time frame. At the rate of 800 feet per hour, this would total to 4,800 feet in 6 hours (800 * 6). Subtracting this amount from the final position would give the elevation at the beginning of the ascent: (11600 - 4800) = 6,800 feet above sea level to begin.</span>

Step-by-step explanation:

[2.4–(0.3–3.21)÷2+0.44÷(−2)]÷ 2/5=

[4.8:2-(-2.91):2-0.44:2]:2/5=

=[(4.8+2.91-0.44):2]*5/2=

=[(7.71-0.44):2]*5/2=

=(7.27:2)*5/2=(7.27*5):(2*2)=

=36.35:4=9.0875
