You can write two equations using the given information:
.. L = W +8
.. L * W = 609
Using substitution, you get a quadratic.
.. (W +8) * W = 609
.. W^2 +8W -609 = 0
Not surprisingly, you're looking for factors of 609 that differ by 8.
.. 609 = 1*609 = 3*203 = 7*87 = 21*29
The last two are the factors of interest.
.. (W +29)(W -21) = 0
The width of the rectangle is 21 feet, the length is 29 feet.
_____
Sometimes it is easier to work with the average dimension. Here, let that be x. Then you have
.. (x +4)(x -4) = 609
.. x^2 -16 = 609
.. x^2 = 625 = 25^2 . . . . . . . one of your memorized math facts
So, the dimensions are
.. 25 +4 = 29 by 25 -4 = 21, that is, 29 ft by 21 ft.
Total area of land = 1 + 1/2 = 3/2 square miles
Area of square fields = 1/4 x 1/4 = 1/16 square miles
Number of fields = (3/2) / (1/16) = 24 fields.
Answer:
7. 8200 miles
8. $350
Step-by-step explanation:
7. The first trip nets 3400 miles; the next four trips (for a total of five) net 1200 miles each, so the total for 5 round trips is ...
... 3400 + 4×1200 = 8200 . . . miles
8. The first month costs $100; the next 5 months (for a total of 6) cost $50 each, so the total for 6 months is ...
... $100 + 5×$50 = $350
Answer:
The Zebra Danios!
Step-by-step explanation:
The zebra danios
4/3 is greater than 1, making it an improper fraction. Suppose that fancy guppy's length is x, the danios' length would be 4/3 x, which, since it is an improper fraction, is greater than x.
Mark me brainlest please!
