Assign the following variables for the origina3l rectangle:
let w = width let w + 8 = length and the area would be w(w + 8) = w² + 8w
No for the second rectangle:
let (w + 4) = width and (w + 8 - 5) or (w + 3) = length
Area = length x width or (w + 4)(w + 3) = w² + 3w + 4w + 12 using the foil method to multiply to binomials. Simplified Area = w² + 7w + 12
Now our problem says that the two area will be equal to each other, which sets up the following equation:
w² + 8w = w² + 7w + 12 subtract w² from both sides
8w = 7w + 12 subtract 7w from both sides
w = 12 this is the width of our original rectangle
recall w + 8 = length, so length of the original rectangle would be 20
Answer:9/20
Step-by-step explanation: 45/100=9/20, 45÷5=9, 100÷5=20 both the denominater and the numerator are divisible by 5.
Answer:
(15, 12)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's generate two systems of equations that fit this scenario.
Number of trips to the airport = x
Number of trips from the airport = y
Total number of trips to and from the airport = 27
Thus:
=> equation 1.
Total price for trips to the Airport = 14*x = 14x
Total price of trips from the airport = 7*y = 7y
Total collected for the day = $294
Thus:
=> equation 2.
Multiply equation 1 by 7, and multiply equation 2 by 1 to make both equations equivalent.
7 × 
1 × 
Thus:
=> equation 3
=> equation 4
Subtract equation 4 from equation 3
-7x = -105
Divide both sides by -7
x = 15
Substitute x = 15 in equation 1


Subtract both sides by 15


The ordered pair would be (15, 12)
