Use the information to write the dimensions of each rectangle in terms of w, the width of the 1st one.

1st rectangle;
l = 2w
w = 2

2nd rectangle:
w = w 
l = 2w + 4

If the area of the 2nd rectangle is 70 square meters, you will use the area formula to write an equation that you will solve using the factoring.

A = lw
70 = w(2w + 4)
70 = 2w^2 + 4w
0 = 2w^2 + 4w -70
0 = 2 (w^2 +2w - 35)
0 = 2 (w + 7) (w - 5)

To get zero, the width would need to be -7 or 5.  Because it is a distance, it has to be 5 meters.

The width of both rectangles is 5 meters.

Can someone help me expand this in log: log_3 x^2 yz and the picture above
BigorU [14]

Answer:

log_4(\frac{xy}{3})=log_4(x) + log_4 (y) - log_4 (3)

Step-by-step explanation:

using the properties of logarithms, the log of a product gives the addition of logs, and the log of a quotient gives the subtraction of logs;

log_4(\frac{xy}{3})=log_4(x) + log_4 (y) - log_4 (3)

How many ways are there for six dogs and four cats to sit in a row in a strawberry field so that no two cats sit next to each ot
pickupchik [31]

Answer: 5,760

Step-by-step explanation:

\\It was given that each dog is distinct from other dogs and each cat is distinct from other cats, Also from the hint given, the First position is for the dogs. \\Let D represent the dogs and C represent the Cat , then we have

\\D C D C D C D C D D   or

\\D  D C D C D C D C D  or

\\D C DD C D C D C D or

\\D C D C D D C D C D or

\\D C D C D C DD C D

\\Each of the arrangements above  could be done in

\\2 x 4! x 4!  ( it is constant that D is starting , so I am only left with the arrangement of the remaining 5 D's  , out of the remaining 5 D's it is also constant that tow of them will be together and this could be done in 2 ways, so I have 4! left for the D's and 4! also for the C's )

\\= 2 x 24 x 24

\\ = 1 , 152

\\The total arrangement = 5 x 1 , 152

\\= 5,7 60 ways

Is the difference between two negative numbers numbers is always negative.
Lorico [155]
Yes. Think of it like this. You borrowed $1 from your friend for a candy bar. You now have -$1 because you owe your friend money. If you ask your friend for another $5 because you found another thing you wanted you have -$6. When you already have a negative, you are subtracting even more from that, which brings you to an even higher negative number

∠G and ∠H are supplementary; m∠G = (x + 4)° and m∠H = (4x + 11)°. What is the measure of ∠G? What is the measure of ∠H?
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

∠G =  37°

∠H = 143°

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know ,

Sum of supplementary angles is 180 degrees.

Hence sum of ∠G and ∠H  is also 180 degrees

∠G + ∠H = 180

Substituting the given values in above equation, we get -

(X+4) + (4X +11) = 180\\5X + 15 = 180\\5X = 165\\X = 33

∠G = (x + 4)° = (33 + 4)° = 37°

∠H = (4x + 11)° = (33*4 + 11)° = 143°
