The area of a rectangle is 37.5 square inches. The length of the rectangle is 15 inches. What is the width of the rectangle?

1 answer:

7 0

Here is how to find the answer for this problem.
We know that the formula for getting the area of the rectangle is A = Length x Width. Given that the area is 37.5 inches squared and the length is 15 inches, let us just plug in the values. Let w be width.
35.7 in^2 = 15 in x w
Next, we divide both sides by 15 and this is the result
w = 2.5 inches.
Therefore, the answer would be 2.5 inches.
Hope this answer helps. Thanks for posting your question.

We are given,

$\longrightarrow 0.2(10 - 5c) = 5c - 16$

Solving the parenthesis

${ \longrightarrow 0.2 \times 10 - 0.2 \times 5c = 5c - 16 }$

${ \longrightarrow 2 - 1c = 5c - 16 }$

${ \longrightarrow 2 + 16 = 5c + 1c }$

${ \longrightarrow 18 = 6c }$

Dividing both sides by 6

${ \longrightarrow 3 = c }$

Hence c = 3.
