Answer:

Width = 12   Length = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to first find an equations with the given variables:

w = 2L - 6

Now apply the area format:

Length * Width

Since the area is 108 square inches

108 = l * w

108 = l(2l-6)

108 = l(2l) + l(-6)

108 = 2l^2 - 6l

Simplify:

(l-9) * (l+6) = 0

Since no number can be negative

w = 2*9(L)-6

w = 12

l=9

If the product of the integers a, b, and c is 1, then what is the difference between the largest and the smallest possible
stepladder [879]
Since there are no multiples other than 1 and -1 that could multiply in any way to equal 1, those are the only numbers you can really work with

it is a possibility that a, b, and c could equal 1 but then it would go wrong when comes time to subtract since all numbers are equal and cannot subtract largest from smallest.

a logical approach would be to try -1, -1, and 1 since -1 * -1 = 1 and then 1* 1 =1

we can make a= -1 , b= -1, and c= 1
 (we need b to equal -1 so that we get an answer of -1 opposed to if we made a=-1 and c=-1, all outcomes would equal 1)
-1²=1
-1³=-1
1⁴= 1
since 1 is the largest possible outcome and -1 is the lowest possible outcome you should subtract the two

1-(-1) = 1+1 = 2

The answer should be D: 2
 
hoped this helped at all!

Twice the difference of a number and 2 is equal to three times the sum of the number and 3. Find the number. The number is nothi
trasher [3.6K]

The number is -13.

In order to find this, we first need to make each part of the statement into a mathematical statement.

Twice the difference of a number and 2.

2(x - 2)

Three times the sum of the number and 3

3(x + 3)

Now we can set them equal to each other and solve.

2(x - 2) = 3(x + 3) ----> Distribute

2x - 4 = 3x + 9 ------> Subtract 2x from both sides

-4 = x + 9 -----> Subtract 9 from both sides

-13 = x
