Answer: width = 10 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Area = length × width
Let l be length and w be width
l = w + 4 ........equation (1)
From above formula
140 = l × w. ........equation (2)
Substitute equation (1) into equation (2)
140 = (w+4) × w
w^2 + 4w= 140
w^2 + 4w - 140= 0
By factorization method
(w+14)(w-10)= 0
w=-14 or w= 10
So now width is 10 ft
From equation(1)
l=w+4
l= 10+4
l= 14 ft
Width = 10 ft and length = 14 ft
Answer:
x = -3±sqrt( 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
(x + 3)^2-5=0
Add 5 to each side
(x + 3)^2-5+5=0+5
(x + 3)^2 = 5
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x + 3)^2 )=±sqrt( 5)
x+3 = ±sqrt( 5)
Subtract 3 from each side
x+3-3 = -3±sqrt( 5)
x = -3±sqrt( 5)
Answer:
24s^2, 54s^2, 96s^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Let s represent the initial side length of the cube. Then the area of each face of the cube is A = 6s^2 (recalling that the area of a square of side length s is s^2).
a) Now suppose we double the side length. The total area of the 6 faces of the cube will now be A = 6(2s)^2, or 24s^2 (a 24 times larger surface area),
b) tripled: A = 6(3s)^2 = 54x^2
c) quadrupled? A = 6(4s)^2 = 96s^2
Answer:
4y^3/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The 4 will remain 4 so we'll leave that alone. √y³ can be written as y^3/2. The way I like to remember how to write fractional exponents is that the index of the radical is the denominator of the fractional exponent and the exponent inside the radical is the numerator.
