The area of a rectangle is A=LW, the area of a square is A=S^2.
W=S-2 and L=2S-3
And we are told that the areas of each figure are the same.
S^2=LW, using L and W found above we have:
S^2=(2S-3)(S-2) perform indicated multiplication on right side
S^2=2S^2-4S-3S+6 combine like terms on right side
S^2=2S^2-7S+6 subtract S^2 from both sides
S^2-7S+6=0 factor:
S^2-S-6S+6=0
S(S-1)-6(S-1)=0
(S-6)(S-1)=0, since W=S-2, and W>0, S>2 so:
S=6 is the only valid value for S. Now we can find the dimensions of the rectangle...
W=S-2 and L=2S-3 given that S=6 in
W=4 in and L=9 in
So the width of the rectangle is 4 inches and the length of the rectangle is 9 inches.
I believe it would be 144 :)
Answer:
I think you do 27 divided by 6 then multiple whatever you get by 17
27 divided by 6= 4.5
X 17 = 76.5
Step-by-step explanation:
I think this is how... you find the amount you need for 1 cup flour then multiply by 17 since you now know the amount of honey needed for one cup flour
5^(x² - 2x) = 1
5^(x²) - 5^(2x) = 1
5^x² - 5²x = 1
Answer:
Possible expressions are:
8x
8 * x
8(x)
8 · x
