Zeke has more children because Sonias amount is 2/3 the amount of Zekes. Zeke has 3 children in his family.

Zekes family has more children. Because of when they say 2/3. it basicly tells u. that Sonia's family has less children. since it's not equal or greater then Zekes.

The area of a rectangle is 42 ft squared, and the length of the rectangle is 5 ft more than twice the width. Find the dimensions

stira [4]

Answer:

<h3>Length = 12 ft</h3>

Width = $\frac{7}{2} ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Area of rectangle = $42 \: {ft}^{2}$

Width = X

Length = 2x + 5

Now,

$x(2x + 5) = 42$

$2 {x}^{2} + 5x = 42$

$2 {x}^{2} + 5x - 42 = 0$

$2 {x}^{2} + 12x - 7x - 42 = 0$

$2x(x + 6) - 7(x + 6) = 0$

$(2x - 7)(x + 6) = 0$

Either

$2x - 7 = 0$

$2x = 0 + 7$

$2x = 7$

$x = \frac{7}{2}$

Or,

$x + 6 = 0$

$x = 0 - 6$

$x = - 6$

Negative value can't be taken.

So, width = $\frac{7}{2} ft$

Again,

Finding the value of length,

Length = $2x + 5$

$2 \times \frac{7}{2} + 5$

$7 + 5$

$12$

Length = 12 ft

Write an equation to make the number "24" using all the numbers 5,4,2,2 and +, -, x and ÷.

Snezhnost [94]

Answer: See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the numbers 5,4,2, and 2 and told to make an equation from it and get a final answer as 24. This will be:

= 5 × 4 + 2 + 2

= 20 + 2 + 2

= 24.

Since we have gotten a final answer of 24, the equation is solved.

Solve this equation <br> ÷2(1+2)

nasty-shy [4]

The answer is 6 because you add the 1 and the 2 first and then multiple to get 6. I don’t know why you put the division sign in front of the 2 though.
