Answer:

length = (3*width) -2

length + 2 = 3*width

width = (length +2) / 3

2*length + 2*width = 68

OR: 2*length = 68 -2*width

If length = (3*width) -2 then

2*length = 6 * width -4

therefore,

6 width -4 = 68 -2 width

8 width = 72

width = 9

Since 2 length + 2 width = 68

then 2 length = 68 -2 width

2 length = 68 -18

length = 25

Quadratic equations and functions. <br> n^2+2n-15=0
sveta [45]

Answer:

n = -5, 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

n^2 + 2n - 15 = 0

Let's check if we can factor this quadratic:

We need 2 numbers whose product is -15 and whose sum is +2.

There are 2 such numbers and they are +5 and -3, so the factors are:

(n + 5)(n - 3) = 0.

n + 5 = 0 or n - 3 = 0

therefore the zeroes are -5 and 3.
