Answer:

The dimensions of the rectangle are

length = 34 yards

width = 15 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The shape is of rectangle,

Width of rectangle = x

Area of rectangle = 510 yd²

According to the given condition

Length of rectangle = 4 + 2x

To Find:

length =?

Width = ?

Solution:

We know that,

\textrm{Area of rectangle} = Length\times Width

On substituting the given values we get

510 = (4 + 2x)\times x\\510 = 4x+2x^{2}\ \textrm{using distributive property}\\\textrm{dividing throughout by two}\\255=2x+x^{2} \\\\x^{2} +2x -255 = 0\\

Which is a quadratic equation so we will apply splitting the middle term that is factorization we get

∴ x^{2}+ 17x -15x -255=0\\x(x+17)-15(x+17)=0\\(x-15)(x+17)=0\\\therefore x-15 =0\ or\ x+17=0\\\\\textrm{x cannot be negative i.e -17}\\\therefore x=15

∴ Width  x = 15 yard

∴ Length = 4 + 2x = 4 +2 × 15 = 34 yard

The dimensions of the rectangle are

length = 34 yards

width = 15 yards

Please Help Urgent <br><br> Find the m∠RLU.
maria [59]

The top right angle is given as 50 degrees.

Because the two sides are identical and Line LC is a bisector, the top left side angle must also be 50 degrees.

Set the given equation equal to 50 and solve:

6n -10 = 50

Add 10 to both sides:

6n = 60

Divide both sides by 6:

n = 60/6

n = 10

m∠RLU = 50

n = 10

so that the novel's pages will be 14x

the combined pages for novel and short story is =390 pages

Required

the individual number of pages

14x+x=390

15x=390

divide both sides by 15

x=26

the short story have 26 pages

the novel's pages will be 14(26)= 364
