Width = 5.5yd  

Length = 12yd

<u>Explanation:</u>

Area of rectangle =  66yd^{2}

Let width of the rectangle = b ,  

So, length = 2b+1  

Area of rectangle = (length X width) - eqn 1

Putting the value of length and width in above equation 1,

66yd^{2} = (2b+1) X b\\66yd^{2} = 2b^{2} + b\\2b^{2} +b-66 = 0\\

On solving the equation we get,

b = 5.5yd

So, width (b) = 5.5yd

and length = 2(5.5) + 1

l = 12yd

Hence,  

Width = 5.5yd  

Length = 12yd

Alexxx [7]

Hi,

Let  the

Youngest brothers age = x+2

Middle brothers age = x+4

Oldest brothers age = x+6  

So,

Youngest brothers age = x+2 = 28+2 = 30 years of age

Middle brothers age = x+4 = 28+4 = 32 years of age

Oldest brothers age = x+6 = 28+6 = 34 years of age

Have a great day!

1. Solve the equations below.
Sergio039 [100]

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 3x + 8 = 23

3x = 23 - 8

3x = 15

x = 15 / 3 = 5

B) 5x + 1 = 3x + 17

5x - 3x = 17 - 1

2x = 16

x = 16 /2 = 8

C) 4 (x+2) = 32

4x + 8 = 32

4x = 32 - 8

4x = 24

x = 24 / 4 = 6

Hello does anyone know how to solve this?
Radda [10]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:    2 ^ -4  ( = 1/16)

Discussion:

- 4 log {8} 2            {8} is used instead of subscript notation


Basic property of logarithms is that exponents become multipliers and vice versa:


-4 log {8} 2 =  log {8}   (2^ -4)



Thank you,

MrB
