Equations:
b = 2a + 1
a * b = 36 --> a * (2a + 1) = 36 --> 2a^2 + a - 36 = 0
Factor: 
(2a + 9)(a - 4) = 0
2a + 9 = 0 --> a = -9/2 = -4.5
a - 4 = 0 --> a = 4
Assuming a is an integer, then a = 4 so b = 2(4) + 1 = 9
Answer: 4 and 9

Honestly, this one works out to be a quadratic (which I don't really feel like going into detail) . . . so instead, since this one is fairly simple to think about, I'll simply try "trial and error" . . .

Possible combinations:
1 × 36 = 36
2 × 18 = 36
3 × 12 = 36
4 × 9 = 36
6 × 6 = 36

Obviously, multiply 4 × 2 = 8 . . . and 9 is one more than 8, which is 2 times the first number, 4 . . . so that's your answer . . .

the numbers are 4 and 9

Schach [20]

Answer:

20.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the diameter of each circle is 4, the dimensions of the rectangle is 8x12

The area of the whole rectangle is 96

Now we need to find the area of the circles

The area of 1 circle is 2^{2} *\pi =12.56...

So the area of all 6 circles is 12.56*6= 75.39...

So to find the area of yellow you have to subract the area of circle from the overall area of the rectangle

96-75.4=20.6
