A rectangle has a legnth of 12 inches less than 6 times its width. If the area of the rectangle is 3744 square inches, find the

elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Length = 6x - 12

Width = x

Area of a rectangle:

A = length x width

3744 = (x)(6x - 12)

3744 = 6x^2 - 12x

6x^2 - 12x - 3744 = 0

Use the quadratic equation to solve for x. The two solutions end up being 26 and -24. Since length is a scalar measurement, it can only be positive. Thus, the value of x is equal to 26 inches.

Width = 26 inches

Length = 6(26) - 12 = 144 inches

Hope this helps!! :)

The sum of the squares of two consecutive negative integers is 61. Find the smaller of the two integers

Marysya12 [62]

$x^2+(x+1)^2=61\\ x^2+x^2+2x+1-61=0\\ 2x^2+2x-60=0\ \ /:2\\ x^2+x-30=0\\ \Delta=1^2-4\cdot(-40)=1+120=121\ \ \Rightarrow\ \ \sqrt{\Delta} =11\\ \\ x_1= \frac{-1-11}{2} = \frac{-12}{2} =-6,\ \ \ \ x_2= \frac{-1+11}{2} = \frac{10}{2}=5\\ \\Ans.:x=-6$
