Answer:

width: 20, length: 25

Step-by-step explanation:

area = length x width

since length is 5 feet longer than the width, length = width + 5

so we can replace length with width + 5

500 = (width + 5) x width

500 = w^2 + 5w

0 = w^2 + 5w - 500

w = 20, w = -25

width cannot bc -25 since you cannot have negative width

since width is 20, length is 25 since length = width + 5

width = 20, length = 25

Kelsey makes pendants that she would like to sell at an upcoming craft fair. She must pay $200 to rent a booth at the craft fair

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Additional 26 pendants are to be sold to make profit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rent of booth at the craft fair = $200

Cost of material for each pendant = $7.80

Let Kelsey makes $x$ number of pendants.

To calculate the total spending, we have to add the rent of booth at the craft fair and cost of material for $x$ number of pendants.

Cost of material for $x$ number of pendants = Cost of material for each pendant multiplied by number of pendants

Cost of material for $x$ number of pendants = $7.80 $\times$ $x$

So, total cost = $200 + $7.80 $\times$ $x$

Now, each pendant is sold at $13.50

So, total money made by selling $x$ pendants = $13.50 $\times$ $x$

For making profit, total money made must be greater than the total cost.

Therefore, the inequality becomes:

$\bold{13.50 \times x > 200+7.80\times x }$

Let us solve the inequality now:

$13.50x - 7.80x>200\\\Rightarrow 5.7x > 200\\\Rightarrow \bold{x > 35.08}$

So, at least 36 pendants are to be sold to make a profit.

Additional 36-10 = 26 pendants are to be sold to make profit.
