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! :)

Omar has 3 1/14 cups of dough to make dumplings.If he uses 3/16 cup of dough for each dumpling,how many whole dumplings can Omar
Bumek [7]

Answer:

Omar can make 16 dumplings with some dough to spare

Step-by-step explanation:

you should convert each value to have the same denominator to make the equation easier

3 and 1/14 cups is the same as 43/14 cups of dough

so the total 43/14 needs to be divided by 3/16

43/14 divided by 3/16 = 43/14 * 16/3

=688/42 = 16.3809...

so Omar can make 16 dumplings with some dough to spare
