Answer:

Equation:

2(x+(x+1))=18

Width = 4 feet

Length = 5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x feet be the width of the rectangle.

If the length of the sandbox is one foot longer than the width, then the length is x + 1 feet.

Use formula

\text{Perimeter}=2(\text{Width}+\text{Length})

The perimeter of a childs rectangular sandbox is 18 feet, thus

18=2(x+(x+1))\\ \\18=2(x+x+1)\\ \\18=2(2x+1)\\ \\9=2x+1\ [\text{Divided by 2}]\\ \\2x+1-1=9-1\\ \\2x=8\\ \\x=4\ feet \\ \\x+1=5 \ feet

The Interest on $2,000 for 2 years is $320 what is the simple interest rate?
Ronch [10]

Answer:

It would be 20

Step-by-step explanation:because you have to divide 320 by 2 which equals $160 for 1 year and then divide that by 2 again would be $80 for 6 months then divide it by 2 again which would be $40 and 3 months for it then divide it by 2 again and 1 and a half months equal $20

In the polynomial below, what number should replace the question mark to produce a difference of squares? x2 + ?x - 49
shutvik [7]
We are asked to find unknown or the missing number to complete the polynomial given in the problem which is x² + ?x -49. First, let us equate the number to be equal to zero such as it would become x² + ?x - 49 = 0. Next, we need to find the factors such that it would produce a difference of squares and these two factors are a = +7 and b = -7. Hence, the complete solution is shown below:
(x + 7) (x-7) = 0
perform distribution and multiplication of terms such as shown below:
x² + 7x - 7x - 49 = 0
Combine the same term such as we can either add or subtract +7x to -7x and the result will be equal to 0x.
 x² + 0x - 49 = 0

Therefore, the missing number is 0. The answer is 0 which will result to x² +0x - 49.
