Let the width be x.
Length is 8 feet more than width. Length = x + 8
Area = x(x + 8)
width increased by 4, that is, (x + 4)
Length decreased by 5, (x + 8 - 5) = (x + 3)
Area = (x + 4)(x +3)
Area remains the same
x(x + 8) = (x+4)(x +3)
x² + 8x = x(x +3) + 4(x +3)
x² + 8x = x² +3x + 4x +12
x² + 8x = x² +7x +12 Eliminate x² from both sides
8x = 7x + 12
8x - 7x = 12
x = 12
Dimensions of original rectangle : x, x + 8
12, 12 +8 = 12, 20
Original rectangle is 20 feet by 12 feet
You start by distributing: 8s-4=7s+12
Combine like terms: 8s-7s=12+4
Solve and get your answer: s=16
Answer:
Part (a)
36
Part (b)
Find the filled table in the attachment
Part (c)
1/36
Step-by-step explanation:
The total number of possible outcomes using the multiplicative rule is given by;
6*6 = 36.
There are 6 possible outcomes in rolling each die, we simply find the product.
The probability of rolling double sixes is given by;
pr(6 and 6) = pr(6) * pr(6) = 1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36
The probability of rolling double sixes represents independent events and thus we employ the multiplicative rule of probability.
Answer:
137
Step-by-step explanation:
A straight line is 180 so take 180 and subtract 43
I don't know what your looking for, so be more specific, but I'm assuming your solving for x, so that's would be
x = -1
