Answer:
- 525 = (w+4)(w)
- 21 ft by 25 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Let w represent the width of the floor. Then the length of the floor is (w+4) and its area is ...
A = LW
525 = (w+4)(w)
w^2 +4w -525 = 0
(w -21)(w +25) = 0 . . . . factor the above
Solutions are ...
w = 21, w = -25
We are interested in the positive solution: w = 21.
The floor is 21 feet wide and 25 feet long.

<em>Alternate solution</em>
Sometimes, when the factors aren't obvious, it works well to write an equation for the average of the dimensions. Here, we can represent that with x, and use (x-2) for the width, and (x+2) for the length. Then we have ...
525 = (x-2)(x+2) = x^2 -4
529 = x^2
√529 = 23 = x
Then w=23 -2 = 21, and the length is w+4 = 25.
What question are you asking?
Answer:
500
Step-by-step explanation:
50x10 = 500
50 feet per second so we multiply 50 (the speed per second) by 10 (the time given). You can also use a formula like this:
S x T
S= Speed
T= Time
Answer:
max 48, min 17
Step-by-step explanation:
Apparently, your plot is supposed to be ...
1 | 77889
2 | 011234456677788999
3 | 01123445566678899
4 | 58
The smallest stem is 1, and its smallest leaf is 7, representing a value of 17.
The largest stem is 4, and its largest leaf is 8, representing a value of 48.
The extremes represented by this plot are: max 48, min 17.
