Let width be x feet 
then the length = 2x + 3 feet

then the area  = x(2x + 3) = 20

2x^2 + 3x - 20 = 0

(2x - 5)(x + 4) = 0

x = 2.5 or -4 ( ignore the negative value)

so the deimnasions are width = 2.5 feet and length = 2(2.5) + 3 =  8 feet

L*w=20, so l=20/w
l=2w+3

20/w=2w+3
20=2w^2+3w
2w^2+3w-20=0

Slip and slide
w^2+3w-40
(w+8)(w-5)
(w+8/2)(w-5/2)
(w+4)(2w-5)

w= -4 or 5/2, but since width must be positive, it is 5/2

(5/2)*l=20
l=8

Final answer: Length= 8, Width= 5/2

Please help quickly <br><br> AB=AD and BC=DC<br> x=?
Arisa [49]

Answer:

x = 110

Step-by-step explanation:

measure of abd is 35, meaning adb is also 35.

so dab + abd + adb is 180

=> x + 35 + 35 = 180

=> x + 70 = 180

=> x = 180-70

=> x = 110

110 degrees is the value of x.

What is 2.26 (6 repeating) as a fraction?
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

34/15

Step-by-step explanation:

I recognized the form of this decimal as a number divided by 3. However, when I multiplied it by 3, I got 6.8. This means that the fraction was not fully simplified. Multiplying by 5, I got 34. Since I had to multiply by 3 and then by 5 to get there, I multiplied by a total of 15. Hope this helps!

Another One I need help withhhh sorrry
Effectus [21]

Answer:

y = 2x+3

Step-by-step explanation:

Sorry I'm probably too late since Quizziz doesn't wait unless you have the freeze timer thing.

y = mx+b

b is the y intercept. The y intercept (when x=0) is given in the table.

Now plug a coordinate in to solve for m.

My coordinates: (1,5)

5 = m + 3

Solve.

2 = m

m = 2

Note: never plug in the y intercept when looking for m.

You can also find the slope by (subtracting the y value of one coordinate from another y value of another coordinate)/(subtracting x value from the first y coordinate above from the x value from the second coordinate).

In this case, it'd be

m = (7-5)/(2-1)

m = 2/1

m = 2
