Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
I wil call the length l and the width w in the following. We are given these informations:
The area of the rectangle is 105. That means l * w = 105. (1)
The length is 16 inches longer that the width. That means l = w + 16. (2)
If we plug the information we get from (2) into the equation (1), we get:
(w + 16) * w = 105
Simplify and you get
w² + 16 w - 105 = 0
With the the quadratic formula we get the results w = 5 and w = -21. The negative result doesn't make sense for our task, we are only interested in positive length and width :).
If we now plug w = 5 back into our infromation (2), we get:
l = 5 + 16 = 21
(To confirm the result plug w = 5 and l = 21 into (1))
Answer:
Hi, the answer is a.
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 1800-200=1600
2. As 1800 is total x will be smaller amount. so....
3. when we write a subtraction statement bigger number - smaller number..
4. So answer will be 1600-x
