Answer: Value of w is 4 units and the equation is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let width of a rectangle be 'w'.

Let length of a rectangle be '2w+2'.

Since we have given that

Area of rectangle = 40 square units.

As we know the formula for "Area = Length × Breadth" :

So, it becomes,

40=w(2w+2)\\\\40=2w^2+2w\\\\20=w^2+w\\\\w^2+w-20=0\\\\w^2+5w-4w-20=0\\\\w(w+5)-4(w+5)=0\\\\(w+5)(w-4)=0\\\\either\ w=-5\ or\ w=4

But dimension can't be negative.

So, w must be 4 units.

Hence, Value of w is 4 units and the equation is correct.

PLZ HELP ASAP DIVIDE LINE SEGMENTS
rodikova [14]
Segment in the direction from A to C
Initial Point: A=(9,5)=(xa,ya)→xi=xa=9, yi=ya=5
Final point: C=(-7,1)=(xc,yc)→xf=xc=-7, yf=yc=1
B=(xb,yb)=?
Proportion: r=AB/BC=3:1=3/1→r=3
 
xb=(xi+r*xf)/(1+r)
Replacing xi=xa=9, xf=xc=-7 and r=3
xb=[9+3*(-7)]/(1+3)
xb=(9-21)/4
xb=(-12)/4
xb=-3

yb=(yi+r*yf)/(1+r)
Replacing yi=ya=5, yf=yc=1 and r=3
yb=[5+3*(1)]/(1+3)
yb=(5+3)/4
yb=8/4
yb=2

B=(xb,yb)→B=(-3,2)

Answer: B=(-3,2)

MANUFACTURING A shoe manufacturer spends $2.50 to make sandals and $4 to make running shoes. During a typical month, they spend
jonny [76]

Answer:

200 pairs of sandals

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the sandals with x and the running shoes with y.

In a typical month:

Total = 2500

In April

Total = 3000

Required

The number of sandals in a typical month

<u>In a typical month:</u>

If 1 sandal costs 2.50, then x costs 2.50x

If 1 running shoe costs 4, then y costs 4y

The total is:

2.50x + 4y = 2500

<u>In April:</u>

If 1 sandal costs 2.50, then 2x costs 5x ---- <em>we used 2x because the pairs is doubled </em>

If 1 running shoe costs 4, then y costs 4y

The total is:

5x + 4y = 3000

The equations are:

5x + 4y = 3000

2.50x + 4y = 2500

Subtract

5x - 2.50x + 4y - 4y = 3000 - 2500

2.50x = 500

x = \frac{500}{2.50}

x = 200
