<h2>Length = 11</h2><h2>Width = 6</h2>

The area of a rectangle is 66 ft^2:

L * W = 66

Length of the rectangle is 7 feet less than three times the width:

L = 3W-7

Substitute L in terms of W:

(3W-7) * W = 66

Factorise the equation:

3W^2 -7W = 66

3W^2 - 7W - 66 = 0

Factors of 66 =

1 66, 2 33, 3 22, 6 11

(3W + 11) (W - 6) = 0

Solve for W:

3W + 11 = 0

3W = 11

W = 3/11

W - 6 = 0

W = 0 + 6

W = 6

Using the original equation, find L:

L = 3W-7

L = 3(6)-7

L = 18-7

L = 11

L * W = 66

11 * 6 = 66

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Length * width =Area

3(x-7)*x=66

x^2-7x-22=0

Solve for 'x' using quadratic formula

Now width=9.35234995ft

Length=7.05704985ft

The area of the shaded region in the task content is; 251.2.

<h3>What is the area of the shaded region in the task content?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the area of the shaded region is;

= Area of semicircle IL - Area of semicircle JK + Area of semicircle IJ + Area of semicircle KL.

Hence, since the radius of each semicircle are as follows;

R(IL) = 12

R(IJ) = R(JK) = R(KL) = 4.

Hence, the Area of the shaded region can be evaluated as;

= (π/2)(12² - 4² + 4² +4²).

= π (144 +16)

= (3.14/2) × 160 = 251.2

5. Alea is 5 times 3 less than Leo's age. Alea is 40 years old. How old is Leo
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

Leo is 11 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Alea is 5 times 3 less than leo's age

- Alea is 40 years old

- Assume that leo's age is x

* Lets change the words to equation

∵ Leo is x years old

∵ Alea is 5 times 3 less than Leo's age

- That means when we subtract 3 from Leo's age and multiply the

 difference by 5 the result is Alea's age

∴ Alea's age = 5(x - 3)

- Multiply the two terms of the bracket by 5

∴ Alea's age = 5x - 15

∵ Alea is 40 years old

- Equate the expression of Alea's age by her age

∴ 5x - 15 = 40 ⇒ the equation to find Leo's age

- Add 15 to both sides

∴ 5x = 55

- Divide both sides by 5

∴ x = 11 ⇒ the solution of the equation

∵ x represents the Leo's age

∵ x = 11

∴ Leo is 11 years old

What is the measure of angle 6, if lines x and y are parallel, and angle 7 measures 121°? 121° 69° 59° 49°
Marianna [84]

Answer:

59°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, shown in the attachment line x and y are parallel lines.

Angle 7 and angle 6 are angles on a straight line.

The two angles will add up to 180 degrees.

\angle 7+\angle 6=180

But angle 7 measures 121°.

This implies that:

121+\angle 6=180

Solve for angle 6 to get;

\angle 6=180-121\

\angle 6=59\degree
