Answer:
Dimensions of original room = 12 x 12 feet.
Explanation:
Let the size of old square room be a x a.
New dimension = ( a+4 ) x ( a + 6 )
We have area of the new room will be 144 square feet greater than the area of the original room.
So, ( a+4 ) x ( a + 6 ) = a x a + 144
a²+10a+24= a²+144
10a = 120
a = 12 feet.
Dimensions of original room = 12 x 12 feet.
Answer:
It’s not allowing me to place done the work but the answer is 8 sorry!
D. x = 3 because 3+3 is 6 and that is over 2*3^2 which is 2*9 which means it is 6/18 then you divide both the numerator and denominator by 6 and that =1/3.
Answer:
98 cats and 19 dogs
Step-by-step explanation:
cat = c
dog = d
The animal shelter currently has a total of 117 animals
c + d = 117
c = 117 - d
the number of cats is 3 more than 5 times the number of dogs
c = 3 + 5d
subtitute c
117 - d = 3 + 5d
117 - 3 = 5d + d
114 = 6d
6d = 114
d = 114/6 = 19
so, the cat is 117-19 = 98
