Answer:

The quantity is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to find the solution to the equation.

Let the quantity we are looking for be x;

According to the question;

The quantity plus a quarter of the quantity = 15

x + 1/4(x) = 15

x + x/4 = 15

Multiply through by 4

4x + (x/4)*4 = 15 * 4

4x + x = 60

5x = 60

x = 60/5

x = 12

The length of a rectangle is 5 inches longer than it is wide. If the area is 150 square inches, what are the dimensions of the r
ikadub [295]

Answer:

Width: 10 inches

Length: 15 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be w.

Since the length is 5 inches longer than its width, the length = w +5.

Area of rectangle = length x width

w (w +5) = 150

w^2 + 5w = 150

w^2 + 5w -150 = 0

Using quadratic formula,

w = 10 or -15

Since the width cannot be negative,

the width is 10 inches.

Now just substitute w=10 into length = w +5.

length = 10 + 5

= 15 inches
