W= width= L+5
L= length
Area= 204

Area= LW
204 square yards= LW
substitute w=L+5 for w
204= (L)(L+5)
204= L^2 + 5L
subtract 204 from both sides
0= L^2 + 5L - 204
factor
0= (L+17)(L-12)

0= L+17
-17= L

0= L-12
12 yards= L


WIDTH
Since the area cannot be a negative number, we'll use L=12 to find the width.

w=L+5
w=12+5
w=17 yards


CHECK:
204=(12)(17)
204=204


ANSWER: The length is 12 yards and the width is 17 yards.

Hope this helps! :)

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME WITH MY MATH ASAP PLEASE!!!!​
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

The two triangles are <u>similar</u> and x is <u>positive</u>, <u>different from 0</u>, so we can write.

\dfrac{x}{9}=\dfrac{12}{x}\\\\x^2=12\times 9\\\\ x = \sqrt{4\times 3 \times 9}=2\times 3 \times \sqrt{3}\\\\ \boxed{\sf \bf x=6\sqrt{3} }

Thanks

(NEED DONE SOON) The measure of two supplementary angles are 4x - 24 and 4(2x - 3). <br> What is x
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of supplementary angles added together MUST equal 180. Therefore, as you are given two angles with the measures of (4x - 24) and 4(2x - 3), they must add together to equal 180. So, we get this equation:

(4x - 24) + 4(2x - 3) = 180

4x - 24 + 8x - 12 = 180 (we distributed 4(2x-3))

12x - 36 = 180

12x = 144

x = 12, -12

Therefore, x is 12 because -12 would mean that (4x-24) and 4(2x-3) are both negative, which is impossible for an angle measure.
