---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Define Length and Width
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let the width be x
Width = x
Length = 2x + 5

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form equation and solve for x
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
x(2x + 5) = 63
2x² + 5x = 63
2x² + 5x - 63 = 0
<span>(x+7)(2x-9) = 0
</span>x = -7 (rejected, length cannot be negative) or 2x - 9 = 0
2x - 9 = 0
2x = 9
x = 9 ÷ 2 
x = 4.5 ft

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find Length and Width
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Width = x = 4.5 ft
Length = 2x + 5 = 2(4.5) + 5 = 14 ft

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Width = 4.5 ft , Length = 14 ft
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A) Rate (R)<br>24/5<br>Time = 1 month<br>Interest = Rs. 39.96​
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:  P = $ 1,998.01

Step-by-step explanation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 24%/100 = 0.24 per year,

putting time into years for simplicity,

1 months ÷ 12 months/year = 0.083333 years,

then, solving our equation

P = 39.96 / ( 0.24 × 0.083333 ) = 1998.007992032

P = $ 1,998.01

The principal required to

accumulate interest of $ 39.96

on a rate of 24% per year for 0.083333 years (1 months) is $ 1,998.01.
