Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let width=x

length=x+3

x(x+3)=54

x²+3x-54=0

x²+9x-6x-54=0

x(x+9)-6(x+9)=0

(x+9)(x-6)=0

x=-9,6

x=-9 (rejected)

as width can't be negative.

hence width=6 units

It takes 1/2 cups of sugar to make 3/8 gallons of sweet tea. If the recipe is for 1 gallon of sweat tea, how much sugar is neede
Aleks04 [339]

Option C

4 cups of sugar is needed

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that It takes 1/2 cups of sugar to make 3/8 gallons of sweet tea

cups of sugar = \frac{1}{2}

gallons of sweet tea = \frac{3}{8}

If the recipe is for 1 gallon of sweat tea, then the cups of sugar needed is given as:

\frac{3}{8} \text{ gallons of sweet tea } = \frac{1}{2} \text{ cups of sugar }

1 \text{ gallon of tea } = x \text{ cups of sugar }

On cross-multiplying we get,

1 \times \frac{1}{2} = x \times \frac{3}{8}\\\\x = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{8}{3}\\\\x = \frac{4}{3}

<em><u>So to make triple the receipe, quantity of sugar needed is:</u></em>

so the receipe is for 3 gallon of sweet tea, then sugar needed is:

\rightarrow \frac{4}{3} \times 3 = 4

Thus 4 cups of sugar is needed
