<span>Let the width of the rectangular plot of land be 'x' yards.
Given that the length of the rectangular plot of land is 10 yards more than its width.
So, width of the rectangular plot of land = (x + 10) yards.
Also given that the area of the rectangular plot of land is 600 square yards.
We know that, area of a rectangle = length * width
That is, (x+10) * x = 600
x^2 + 10x = 600
x^2 + 10x - 600 = 0
x^2 + 30x - 20x -600 = 0
x(x + 30) - 20(x + 30) = 0
(x +30)(x -20) =0
Therefore, either (x + 30) = 0 or (x - 20) = 0
If x + 30 = 0, then x = -30 and
If x - 20 = 0, then x = 20
Since 'x' represents the width of a rectangular plot of land it cannot be negative.
Therefore,
width of the rectangular plot of land = 20 yards
length of the rectangular plot of land= x + 10 = 30 yards</span>
I'm pretty sure this is the answer but I'm not exactly sure....
The answer to this question will be D
Answer:
This can not be properly answered, because we do not have the length of each trail.
The first step here will be find the length, in miles, for each of the four trails.
As students choose all four trails, the number of miles that each student will bike is equal to the addition of the lenght of the four trails.
Suppose this number is N.
So each student bike N miles, and the company donates $1.75 per mile. Then the amount of money that a single student is N times $1.75, or N*$1.75
