Answer:
x
=
40
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is solved applying the formula of the area of the rectangle, and finding it's width. To do this, we solve a quadratic equation, and we get that the cardboard has a width of 1.5 feet.
Area of a rectangle:
The area of rectangle of length l and width w is given by:
w(2w + 3) = 9
From this, we get that:
Solving a quadratic equation:
Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:
.
This polynomial has roots 
such that 
, given by the following formulas:
In this question:
Thus a quadratic equation with 
Then
Width is a positive measure, thus, the width of the cardboard is of 1.5 feet.

1) Definitions:
1.1) Inverse statement: negating the hypothesis and the conclusion of the original statement, i.e.:
conditional statement: p → q
inverse: ~p → ~q (the symbol ~ means the negation)
1.2) Converse statement: switching the hypothesis and the conclusion of the conditional statement, i.e.:
conditional statement: p → q
converse: q → p
2) converse of the given statement
conditional: <span>If a line is vertical, then it has undefined slope.
converse: switch the hypothesis and the conclusion
if a line has undefined slope, then it is vertical <------- answer
</span>3) Inverse of the given statement
conditional: if <span>a line is vertical, then it has undefined slope.
inverse: negate both hypothesis and conclusion.
</span>if a line is not vertical, then it does not have an undefined slope <---answer
This can be done algebraically:
300*x=330 Where x is the multiplier
Therefore x=330/300=1.1
To find a percentage of a number you multiply by the percentage divided by 100.
So 330 is 110% of 300, which is an increase of 10%.
