Answer: The length is 10metres and the width is 3 1/2metres or 3.5metres

Step-by-step explanation:

If the length of the rectangle is 3m more than ×2 the width, the dimensions (length & width) that will give an area of 27m^2 =?

Firstly, the area of a rectangle = (L+W)×2

Since the length is 3 more than ×2 the width,

The length, L us therefore = (2×w)+3= 2w+3

Recall that the area is 27m^2

Now, substitute L for 2w+3

[(2w+3)+w]×2 = 27

(2w+3+w)×2= 27

(3w+3)×2 = 27

6w+6=27

6w= 27-6

6w = 21

w = 21/6

w= 3 1/2m

If the width = 3 1/2, and area = (L+w)×2, we substitute "w" for 3 1/2 in the equation below:

(L+ 3 1/2)×2 = 27

2L + 7 = 27

2L =27-7

2L = 20

L = 10m

Therefore, the length = 10m and the width

= 3 1/2m

Answer:

3m and 9m

Step-by-step explanation:

length of the rectangle = 2w+3

width of rectangle = w

area = L*W

if area = 27m²

then (2w+3)w=27

=2w²+3w-27=0

using factorization w= 3 or -4.5

w=3m

L=9m

Z^m-n (z^m+ z^m+n + z^n)
rusak2 [61]

Answer:Your left hand side evaluates to:

m+(−1)mn+(−1)m+(−1)mnp

and your right hand side evaluates to:

m+(−1)mn+(−1)m+np

After eliminating the common terms:

m+(−1)mn from both sides, we are left with showing:

(−1)m+(−1)mnp=(−1)m+np

If p=0, both sides are clearly equal, so assume p≠0, and we can (by cancellation) simply prove:

(−1)(−1)mn=(−1)n.

It should be clear that if m is even, we have equality (both sides are (−1)n), so we are down to the case where m is odd. In this case:

(−1)(−1)mn=(−1)−n=1(−1)n

Multiplying both sides by (−1)n then yields:

1=(−1)2n=[(−1)n]2 which is always true, no matter what n is
