width (w) = w

Length (L) = 3w - 10

Area (A) = L x w

77 = (3w - 10)w

77 = 3w² - 10w

0 = 3w² - 10w - 77

0 = 3w² - 21w + 11w - 77

0 = 3w(w - 7) + 11(w - 7)

0 = (3w + 11)(w - 7)

0 = 3w + 11, 0 = w - 7

w = \frac{-11}{3}, w = 7 (width cannot be negative!)

w = 7

Length (L) = 3w - 10 = 3(7) - 10 = 21 - 10 = 11

Answer: width = 7 ft, Length = 11 ft

Find the value of the lesser root of x2 + 12x + 35 = 0.
matrenka [14]
In quadratic equations,
                                   a + b = -B
                                      ab = C
where a and b are the roots, B is the second term, and C is the constant.
Substituting,
                                  a + b = -12
                                      ab = 35
The values of a and b from the equation is -7 and -5. Thus, the lesser root is -7.

Use rule [ x^-y = 1/x^y ]

3^-5 = 1/3^5 = 1/243

Q #7 please solve the equation
pishuonlain [190]
The relation between a and s is given to be:

a = 640s

where,

a = number of acres
s = number of square miles

We are to find the number of acres for 7.5 square miles.

This means, s = 7.5

Using the value in the formula, we get:

a = 640 x 7.5 = 4800 acres

So the answer to this question is option B
