Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
L= length
w= width= L-3
A= area= 238 ft^2
LENGTH
Area Formula
A= LW
substitute w value
238= (L)(L- 3)
multiply L by parentheses
238= L^2 - 3L
subtract 238 from both sides
0= L^2 - 3L - 238
factor
0= (L + 14)(L - 17)
set each parentheses equal to 0
0= L + 14
-14= L
OR
0= L - 17
17 ft= L
*Since the measure of a rectangle would not be negative, L= 17 ft
WIDTH
w= L - 3
w= 17 - 3
w= 14 ft
ANSWER: Length= 17 ft; Width= 14 ft
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the amount of chlorophyll in a leaf changes based on outside temperature. Here there are two variables.
i) Amount of chlorophyll in a leaf
ii) outside temperature
Here outside temperature is an independent variable as amount of chlorophyll in a leaf cannot control it.
But on the other hand, Amount of chlorophyll in a leaf depends on the outside temperature and hence cannot be independent but dependent variable
Recall the definition of dependent and independent variable
An independent variable is the variable that is controlled in a scientific experiment to test the effects on the dependent variable.
A dependent variable is the variable being tested and measured in a scientific experiment.
Answer:
x= -2
Step-by-step explanation:
2(x+3)=5x+10-x (we need to distribute first)
2x+6=4x+10 (then add like terms)
-2x=4 (now divide)
x= -2
The three lengths listed have a combined time of -0.54.
-0.72 + 0.54 = -0.18
The third length is 0.18 seconds faster than the previous record holder.
