Answer:

New dimensions are; Width = 12m and Length = 12m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let length of rectangle be L

Let width be W

Area of rectangle has a formula;

Area = Length x Width = LW

We are given the area = 144 m²

So,

LW = 144 - - - (eq1)

Now, we are told that width is doubled and length is decreased by 12m but area remains the same.

Thus, we have;

Width as 2W and Length as L - 12.

Area = 2W(L - 12)

So,

2W(L - 12) = 144 - - - (eq2)

Equating eq 1 and 2,we have;

LW = 2W(L - 12)

W will cancel out to give;

L = 2(L - 12)

L = 2L - 24

2L - L = 24

L = 24m

From equation 1, LW = 144

Thus; W = 144/L = 144/24

W = 6m

So new design of rectangle now has a dimension of;

Width = 2W = 2 × 6 = 12m

Length = L - 12 = 24 - 12 = 12m

So, new dimensions are; Width = 12m and Length = 12m

Equations which are never true

This equation has no solution.

A a non-zero constant never equals zero.

Equation of a Straight Line

2.2     Solve   2x-5y-5  = 0

Tiger recognizes that we have here an equation of a straight line. Such an equation is usually written y=mx+b ("y=mx+c" in the UK).

"y=mx+b" is the formula of a straight line drawn on Cartesian coordinate system in which "y" is the vertical axis and "x" the horizontal axis.

In this formula :

y tells us how far up the line goes

x tells us how far along

m is the Slope or Gradient i.e. how steep the line is

b is the Y-intercept i.e. where the line crosses the Y axis

The X and Y intercepts and the Slope are called the line properties. We shall now graph the line  2x-5y-5  = 0 and calculate its properties
