Assign the following variables for the origina3l rectangle:
let w = width let w + 8 = length and the area would be w(w + 8) = w² + 8w
No for the second rectangle:
let (w + 4) = width and (w + 8 - 5) or (w + 3) = length
Area = length x width or (w + 4)(w + 3) = w² + 3w + 4w + 12 using the foil method to multiply to binomials. Simplified Area = w² + 7w + 12
Now our problem says that the two area will be equal to each other, which sets up the following equation:
w² + 8w = w² + 7w + 12 subtract w² from both sides
8w = 7w + 12 subtract 7w from both sides
w = 12 this is the width of our original rectangle
recall w + 8 = length, so length of the original rectangle would be 20
Answer:
65 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two simultaneous equations
. Remeber that v=d/t, 1hour = 60 minutes.
1. 40 = (d+15)/(t+0.5)
2. 50 = d/t
solving: d= 25 miles and t=0.5 hours.
The distance traveled is:
D=d+d+15
D=65 miles
4x-24y. Basically you distribute 4 to x which makes it 4x and distribute 4 to 6 which multiplies to 24 and you drop y next to it making it 24y
