Answer:

18 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent number of days.

We have been given that Brandy's watch falls 1 second every day. So Brandy's watch will fall 1x seconds behind in x days.

We are also told that Brandy set her watch 4 seconds behind, so Brady's watch will be behind by total x+4 seconds in x days.

Since Brady's watch is 22 seconds behind, so we will equate x+4 by 22 to solve for x as:

x+4=22

x+4-4=22-4

x=18

Therefore, Brandy set her watch 18 days ago.

Answer:

Its been 19 days since brandy last set her watch as the watch is 22 seconds behind.      

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Brandy set her watch 4 seconds behind and it falls behind another 1 second every day.

Thus, this forms an arithmetic progression.

4, 5, 6, 7, ...

First term, a = 4

Common difference, d = 1

The n^{th} terms is 22. We have to find the value of n.

The  n^{th} terms of A.P is given by

a_n = a + (n-1)d

Putting values, we get,

22 = 4 + (n-1)1\\18 = n-1\\n = 19

Thus, its been 19 days since brandy last set her watch as the watch is 22 seconds behind.

I don’t understand helpppppooppoppppp
liraira [26]

Answer:

length is 20 and the width is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

so Area is 100

Area = width * length

legth = 4 * width

This means:

Area = width * 4 width =>  Area = 5 * width

We know that area is 100 so:

100 = 5 * width

that means width = 20, but wait didn't I say that the length is 20? Yes, remember we said length = 4 * width at the beginning, so <u>length = 20</u>.

Now we can easily calculate width as width is 4 times smaller than length, so:

<u>width = 20/4 => 5</u>

We can also test if this is correct by simply using the formula to calculate rectangle. So 5 * 20 = 100, correct!
