To get the greatest possible quotient, you need the biggest possible
dividend and the smallest possible divisor.
96,432 divided by 225 = 428.5666... <== greatest possible
23,469 divided by 522 = 44.9597... <== smallest possible

Answer: the expression for the width is x + 4
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the rectangle is expressed as
Area = x² + 13x + 36 square meters.
The length is expressed as
L = x + 9 meters
To determine the expression for the width of the rectangle, we would factorize the expression for the area. Hence
x² + 13x + 36 = 0
We would find two numbers such that their sum or difference is 13x and their product is 36x². The two numbers are 9x and 4x. Therefore,
x² + 9x + 4x + 36 = 0
x(x + 9) + 4(x + 9) = 0
(x + 4)(x + 9)
Therefore, the expression that represents the width of the rectangle is x + 4
Answer:
If m is the midpoint of ab it means am is equal to mb
am = 3x + 8 and mb = 6x-4
and ab = am + mb
first find the value of x by using am = mb
3x + 8 = 6x - 4
8 + 4 = 6x - 3x
12 = 3x
x = 4
ab = 3 (4) + 8
= 12 + 8 = 20 = mb
ab = am + mb
= 20 + 20
40
so, the value of ab is 40
