Check the picture below

it can't be -3... since is width unit, so it has to be the other

and recall that length = 2w - 5

5 cm less than twice the width: 

l = 2w - 5

A = lw

33 = lw 

33 = (2w - 5)(w)

33 = 2w^2 - 5w

2w^2 - 5w - 33 = 0


w = 5.5, -3

-3 is an extraneous solution, so the only answer is w = 5.5

33 = 5.5l

\frac {33}{5.5} = ( \frac{5.5}{5.5})(l)


6 = l

The dimensions of the rectangle are a length of 6, and a width of 5.5

Jimmy's school is selling tickets to the
natka813 [3]
Children’s tickets are $4, adult tickets are $14




Explanation:

4a+6c=80

If they made $4 more dollars on the second day than the first by selling one extra child ticket then we know a child’s ticket is $4 per ticket.


4a+6*4=80
4a+24=80
4a=56
14=a

So each adult ticket costs $14.


You can check by filling in $14 and $4 for each equation.


4*14+6*4=80

4*14+7*4=84

What is a square root and what does it do?
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Hey

Definition:-

A square root is a number which produces a specific quantity when multiplied by itself.

Example:-

Suppose the area of a square of side 6 cm is given by 6 × 6 = 36 cm².

Therefore 36 is said to be the square of 6. We write 6² = 36 and we read the ‘the square root of 6 is 36' or simply ‘6 squared is 36.'

hope this helps
