Answer:
x(3y - 1) and (2a - 3)(2a + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
(1)
3xy - x ← factor out x from each term
= x(3y - 1)
(2)
4a² - 9 ← is a difference of squares and factors in general as
a² - b² = (a - b)(a + b) , then
4a² - 9
= (2a)² - 3²
= (2a - 3)(2a + 3)
Answer: the length is 87 feet
The width is 40 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L represent the length of the playing field.
Let W represent the width of the playing field.
The playing field is rectangular. The formula for determining the perimeter of a rectangle is expressed as
Perimeter = 2(L + W)
The perimeter of a playing field for a certain sport is 254 ft. This means that
254 = 2(L + W)
L + W = 254/2
L + W = 127 - - - - - - - - - - - -1
The length is 47 ft longer than the width. This means that
L = W + 47
Substituting L = W + 47 into equation 1, it becomes
W + 47 + W = 127
2W + 47 = 127
2W = 127 - 47 = 80
W = 80/2 = 40
L = W + 47 = 40 + 47
L = 87
Answer:
Length = 9units
Width = 7units
Step-by-step explanation:
It is said that the length is 2units more than the width
Assume that the width is x, then the length will be 2 + x
ie
Width = x
Length = 2 + x
Area of the rectangle = 63units
Area of rectangle = l * b
l - length of the rectangle
b - width of the rectangle
A = l * b
63 = (2 + x) * x
63 = ( 2 + x) x
63 = 2x + x^2
Let's rearrange it
x^2 + 2x - 63 = 0
Let's find the factor of 63
A factor that can be multiplied to give -63 and that can be added to give +2
Let's use -7 and +9
x^2 - 7x + 9x - 63 = 0
Separate with brackets
( x^2 - 7x) + ( 9x - 63) = 0
x( x - 7) + 9(x - 7) = 0
( x + 9)(x - 7) = 0
( x + 9) = 0
( x - 7) = 0
x + 9 = 0
x = -9
x - 7 = 0
x = 7
Note: the length of a rectangle can not be negative
So therefore,
x = 7
Length = 2 + x
= 2 + 7
= 9units
Width = x
= 7units
