Because l•w= area, area= 320, l=w+4
width • (width +4)= 320

Distribute the multiplication over addition and move all to the left side.
w^2 +4w-320=0
(w-16)•(w+20)=0 yet, The product of two things is 0 if one is 0 or both are 0 so
w-16=0 so w=16 and
w+20=0 so w= -20

Now the width or length could not be negative so we discard the solution w=-20.

Answer
width= 16 inches
length =16+4=20

Verify
w•l=320
16•20=320✔️

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

In order for it to benefit his father to buy the pass Seth have to attend the movies for 11 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of movie pass = $40

Cost per matinees with pass = $1.00

Cost per matinees without pass = $3.50

To Find:

Number of times must Seth attend in order for it to benefit his father to buy the pass = ?

Solution:

Let x be the number of times he wants to visit

To profit his father

The number of visits without pass =  the number of visits with passin the cost  of $3.50

Then, without pass if he visits for x times then the cost will be  = 3.50x

Also with pass, the number of times he can visit the pass  =  \frac{40}{3.50}

then

\frac{350 x}{3.50} = \frac{40}{3.50}

3.50x = 40

x = \frac{40}{3.50}

x =  11.42

x = 11 (approx)
