Answer:

width: 5.5 yd; length: 8 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent the width of the rectangle in yards. Then 2w-3 is the length and the area is the product of length and width:

w(2w-3) = 44

2w^2 -3w -44 = 0 . . . . put the equation into standard form

(w+4)(2w -11) = 0 . . . . . factor the equation

w = -4 or 11/2 . . . . . . . . the negative solution is extraneous

Then the length is 2·(11/2) -3 = 8.

The width of the rectangle is 5.5 yards; the length is 8 yards.

How can I solve this proof?? PLZ HELP I DONT UNDERSTAND!! Thanks !!
love history [14]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

See below


Discussion:

Triangles BAD and BCD are congruent by the SAS postulate.

          * Side AD = DC because BD is the perpendicular bisector  of AC.

          * Angle ADB and CDB are both right angles, and hence equal, because

            BD is the perpendicular bisector of AC)


Corresponding parts of congruent triangles are equal so angle BAD = angle BCD,  which was to be proven.


Regards,

Compute: 5 ∙ (2 + 3i)
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

It will be equal to 40

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to compute 5\times (2+3!)

Let first find 3 !

For this we have to use factorial concept

So 3! will be equal to 3! = 3×2×1 = 6

Now According to 6+2 = 8

And now after solving bracket we have to multiply with 5

So 5×8 = 40

So after computation 5\times (2+3!)=40

So the final answer will be 40
