W= width= L+5
L= length
Area= 204
Area= LW
204 square yards= LW
substitute w=L+5 for w
204= (L)(L+5)
204= L^2 + 5L
subtract 204 from both sides
0= L^2 + 5L - 204
factor
0= (L+17)(L-12)
0= L+17
-17= L
0= L-12
12 yards= L
WIDTH
Since the area cannot be a negative number, we'll use L=12 to find the width.
w=L+5
w=12+5
w=17 yards
CHECK:
204=(12)(17)
204=204
ANSWER: The length is 12 yards and the width is 17 yards.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
The common ratio is -2
Next three terms are 18, -36, and 72
Step-by-step explanation:
The common ratio is -2 since each consecutive term is being multiplied by -2
The next three terms are -9(-2) = 18, 18(-2) = -36, and -36(-2) = 72
72 small bags of coffe that worker can make becuase 18 divided by 0.25
150 times
out of the first 5 cards, there is a 3/5 chance of drawing a yellow.
if you replace the card and draw again, you still have a 3/5 chance of drawing a yellow card.
keep doing this process for 250 draws, each draw will always have 3/5 chance of drawing a yellow card.
so 3/5 +3/5 +3/5 +... (250 times) = 250 x 3/5 = 150
You see, that it's divided into triangles. Find the area of each triangle using the formula: the area of triangle is base*height*1/2. Then, add all the areas altogether.
