The width of the rectangle = x.
The length of the rectangle is 3 yd more than twice the width = 2x+3.
The area is 35 yd².

The area is the width times the length.
35=x(2x+3) \\
35=2x^2+3x \\
0=2x^2+3x-35 \\
0=2x^2+10x-7x-35 \\
0=2x(x+5)-7(x+5) \\
0=(2x-7)(x+5) \\
2x-7=0 \ \lor \ x+5=0 \\
2x=7 \ \lor \ x=-5 \\
x=\frac{7}{2} \ \lor \ x=-5

The length and width must be positive so x=\frac{7}{2}=3.5.
2x+3=2 \times \frac{7}{2} + 3=7+3=10

The dimension of the rectangle are 3.5 yd and 10 yd.

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

In a parallelogram, the diagonals bisect each other.

Therefore,

4x - 5 = 3x

gregori [183]

The lowest common denominator is lcm(5, 3), which is 15.

The sum of 2/5 + 5/3 + 9/3 is 6/15 + 25/15 + 45/15, which is 76/15 or 5\frac{1}{15}.
