Another way to write this is:
x = 23y + 5
xy = 6732

Now plug in the first equation into the second:
(23y + 5)y = 6732
23y^2 + 5y - 6732 = 0

Either use quadratic equation or factor:
(y - 17)(23y + 396) = 0
y = 17 or -396/23

You know you can automatically eliminate the second y because it's negative and you need the two integers to multiply to a positive number (6732).

Plug y = 17 back into either equation (second might be easier):
17x = 6732
x = 396

V125BC [204]

<u>Given</u> -

  • Area of rectangular field = Area of square field
  • side of square = 60m
  • breadth of the rectangular field = 32m

<u>To find</u> -

  • length of the rectangular field

<u>Solution</u> -

Area of square = side × side = (60 × 60)m² =

Area of square =3600m²

Hence,

Area of rectangular field = Area of square field = 3600m²

Area of rectangular field = l × b = 3600m²

=> l × 32m = 3600m²

=> l = \sf{\frac{3600}{32}\:m}

=> l = 112.5m

so, the length = 112.5m

26 out of the 65 magazines at the bookstore are women's magazines. What percentage of the magazines at the bookstore are women's
egoroff_w [7]

The fraction \frac{26}{64} represents the number of women's magazines out of all the other magazines at the book store.

To find what percent of the magazines are women's magazines, we can turn \frac{26}{64} into a percent.

To write a fraction as a percent in lowest terms, first remember that a percent is a ratio of a number to 100 so to write 26/64 as a percent, we need to find a fraction equivalent to 26/64 with 100 in the denominator. We can do this by setting up a proportion.

40% is the answer
