<span>Let the width of the rectangular plot of land be 'x' yards.
Given that the length of the rectangular plot of land is 10 yards more than its width.
So, width of the rectangular plot of land = (x + 10) yards.
Also given that the area of the rectangular plot of land is 600 square yards.
We know that, area of a rectangle = length * width
That is, (x+10) * x = 600
x^2 + 10x = 600
x^2 + 10x - 600 = 0
x^2 + 30x - 20x -600 = 0
x(x + 30) - 20(x + 30) = 0
(x +30)(x -20) =0
Therefore, either (x + 30) = 0 or (x - 20) = 0
If x + 30 = 0, then x = -30 and
If x - 20 = 0, then x = 20
Since 'x' represents the width of a rectangular plot of land it cannot be negative.
Therefore,
width of the rectangular plot of land = 20 yards
length of the rectangular plot of land= x + 10 = 30 yards</span>
Elio is right in assuming the relationship between the height and the hours it burns is proportional.
Find the unit rate
14 ÷ 8 = 1.75 cm/h
Divide
21 ÷ 1.75 = 12
You can set this up as an algebraic equation to check the answer.
If the candle is 21 cm tall, it will burn for 12 hours.
Hope this helped you! :)
Answer:
200 in all
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
1) Distribute 1.2 to 6.3 and -7x
2)Combine 3.5 and 7.56
3)Subtract 11.06 from both sides
Step-by-step explanation:
3.5 + 1.2(6.3 - 7x) = 9.38
Distribute 1.2 to 6.3 and -7x
3.5 + 1.2* 6.3 - 1.2 * 7x = 9.38
3.5 + 7.56 - 8.4x = 9.38
Combine 3.5 and 7.56
11.06 - 8.4x = 9.38
Subtract 11.06 from both sides
11.06 - 8.4x -11.06 = 9.38 - 11.06
-8.4x = -1.68
To find solution:
Divide both sides by (-8.4)
-8.4x/-8.4 = -1.68/-8.4
x = 0.02
