Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The given relation between length and width can be used to write an expression for area. The equation setting that equal to the given area can be solved to find the shed dimensions.
__
<h3>Given relation</h3>
Let x represent the width of the shed. Then the length is (2x+3), and the area is ...
A = LW
20 = (2x+3)(x) . . . . . area of the shed
__
<h3>Solution</h3>
Completing the square gives ...
2x² +3x +1.125 = 21.125 . . . . . . add 2(9/16) to both sides
2(x +0.75)² = 21.125 . . . . . . . write as a square
x +0.75 = √10.5625 . . . . . divide by 2, take the square root
x = -0.75 +3.25 = 2.50 . . . . . subtract 0.75, keep the positive solution
The width of the shed is 2.5 feet; the length is 2(2.5)+3 = 8 feet.
The answer is 20, since it’s heads and tails you have a half and half chance, therefore you divide 40 in half and get 20
Answer:
all work shown and pictured
<span>0=2x+3(3x-4)-(-x+14)
Follow BEDMAS
</span><span>0=2x+9x-12-(-x+14)
</span>0=2x+9x-12+x-14
Add like terms
0=11x-12+x-14
0=12x-12-14
0=12x-26
Flip the eqaution
12x-26=0
Move -26 across the equal sign
12x=0+26
12x=26
x=26/12
x=13/6
Hope this helps! A thanks/brainiest answer would be appreciated :)
