Answer:
length = 14 m
width = 7 m
Step-by-step explanation:
l = length
w = width
l = 2w - 8
w(2w - 8) = 42
2w² - 8w - 42 = 0
you can factor out a 2 to work with smaller numbers:
w² - 4w - 21 = 0
(w - 7)(w + 3) = 0
w = 7
'w' cannot equal a negative so we discount it as an answer
find length:
l = 2(7) - 8
l = 14 - 8 or 6m

Answer:
H = 20.5 hours
I = 19.5 Hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by creating a system.
I = time which the inlet pipe takes alone to fill the pond
H = time which the hose takes alone to fill the pond
10/I + 10/H = 10
H - I = 1
H = 20.5 hours
I = 19.5 Hours
Answer:
There are 8 people on the train.
Step-by-step explanation:
20 - 15 = 5
5 + 3 = 8
Answer:
w = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
you would do this by re-arranging the equation
6 = 5w-10-w (move w to the other side)
6 = 4w-10 (because 5w-w = 4w)
6+10=4w (move 10 to the other side)
16 = 4w (add 6 and 10)
4 = w (divide both sides by 4)
