<span>Let the width of the rectangular plot of land be 'x' yards.
Given that the length of the rectangular plot of land is 10 yards more than its width.
So, width of the rectangular plot of land = (x + 10) yards.
Also given that the area of the rectangular plot of land is 600 square yards.
We know that, area of a rectangle = length * width
That is, (x+10) * x = 600
x^2 + 10x = 600
x^2 + 10x - 600 = 0
x^2 + 30x - 20x -600 = 0
x(x + 30) - 20(x + 30) = 0
(x +30)(x -20) =0
Therefore, either (x + 30) = 0 or (x - 20) = 0
If x + 30 = 0, then x = -30 and
If x - 20 = 0, then x = 20
Since 'x' represents the width of a rectangular plot of land it cannot be negative.
Therefore,
width of the rectangular plot of land = 20 yards
length of the rectangular plot of land= x + 10 = 30 yards</span>
Answer:
56 people drink 3 cups daily
Step-by-step explanation:
What's the total number of people that drink 3 cups?
Total number of people = 400
7 / 10 were asked said yes
Number of people that said yes = (7 / 10) × 400 = 280
280 people drink tea.
20% of 280 people drink 3 cups daily, whats the number = ?
20% of 280 = ?
20 / 100 = x / 280
(20 × 280) = (100 × x)
5600 = 100x
X = 5600 / 100
X = 56 people
56 people drink 3 cups of tea daily.
Answer: d = 1/3
Step-by-step explanation: 48y = 48/4 = 12. So, 2d(18) is equal to 12. 12/18 is 2/3 so 2d has to equal 2/3. That means d = 1/3.
