Collin is building a deck on the back of his house. He has enough lumber for the deck to be 144 square feet. The length should b
joja [24]
Width = x
length = x+10

Area of deck = 144 square feet

Area = length * width

144 = x(x+10)

Solving for x in a quadratic:

x²+10x = 144
x²+10x-144 = 0

Factor:
(x+18)(x-8) = 0

Solving for x:
x = 8, x = -18

Dimensions cannot be negative, therefore x = 8, only.

Length = x + 10
Length = 18

Width = 8

Can someone help me with this problem I really don’t know how to work it out and I’m getting frustrated please help..

Answer:

  1 cake and 6 pies

Step-by-step explanation:

Let c represent the number of cakes Alice and George can make. Likewise, let p represent the number of pies.

Then the amount of flour they need (in cups) is ...

  3c + 2p . . . . cups of flour needed

And the amount of sugar needed is ...

  2c + 1.5p . . . cups of sugar needed

__

They want to use all 15 cups of flour they have, and all 11 cups of sugar, so the amounts above need to match the amounts on hand:

  3c + 2p = 15

  2c + 1.5p = 11

We can solve these equations various ways. One of my favorite is to use a graphing calculator. (See attached) It tells us that Alice and George can make 1 cake and 6 pies with the flour and sugar they have.

_____

If you want to solve these equations algebraically, there are several methods for that, too. Here, we can multiply the first one by 2/3 and subtract the result from the second one:

  (2c +1.5p) -(2/3)(3c +2p) = (11) -(2/3)(15)

  2c +3/2p -2c -4/3p = 11 -10 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  1/6p = 1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .collect terms

  p = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 6

Substituting into the first equation gives ...

  3c +2·6 = 15 . . . substitute 6 for p

  3c = 3 . . . . . . . . subtract 12

  c = 1 . . . . . . . . . . divide by 3

These values tell us Alice and George can make 1 cake and 6 pies with the flour and sugar they have.

Darina [25.2K]
X+24*(1/x)=11
x+24/x=11
x²+24=11x
x²-11x+24=0
(x+3)(x-8)=0
x=-3, x=8
checking : 8+24*(1/8)=11, 8+3=11 correct
-3+24*(1/-3)=-3-8=-11 incorrect
number is 8, reciprocal is 1/8
