Answer:

width=3m

length=9m

Step-by-step explanation:

-Let w be the width of the garden.

-Given that the length is 6 units more than the width, l=w+6

-We apply the area formula to solve for w:

A=lw\\\\27=w(w+6)\\\\w^2+6w-27=0\\\\\#Apply \ Complete \ Squares\\\\w^2-3w+9w-27=0\\\\w(w-3)+9(w-3)=0\\\\(w-3)(w+9)=0\\\\w=3 \ \ \or w=-9\\\\\therefore w=3m\\\\l=w+6=3+6=9m

Hence, the garden's width is 3 m and the length is 9 m

Evelina took 50 people fishing each day last week. The table shows the number of fish the group caught each day.
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

152

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of fish caught is at a constant decreasing rate of 17. 203-186=17, 186-169=17, 169-17=152. So all you have to do is subtract the constant rate from the last known number.
