Width = W
Length = 2 times the width plus 3 feet = 2W + 3
Area of triangle A = L * W
A = W (2W + 3)
20 = 2W^2 + 3W
2W^2 + 3W - 20 = 0
(W + 4) (2W - 5) = 0
W + 4 = 0; W = - 4 (width cannot be negative, excluded)
2W - 5 = 0
2W = 5
W = 2.5
L = 2W + 3 = 2(2.5) + 3 = 8
Answer:
Width = 2.5 feet and Length = 8 feet

Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
420 - 45 = 375
375 / 15 = 25
Answer:
100
Step-by-step explanation:
Mixed candy question... Skittles jar... to be filled with Jelly beans.
Let's first calculate the volume of the jar. We'll assume it's a regular cylindrical prism jar, unlike the one on the photo which is narrower on top.
V = π * r² * h = π * (3.5)² * 11.5 = 140.875 π = 442.6 cubic cm
Now, we don't have the precise measurement of a jelly bean, but we know it's roughly 2-3 cubic cm. The precision isn't needed to answer this question, just to have a rough idea... it's no 300 cu cm per jelly bean.
So, let's assume a 3 cu cm per jelly bean (2 cu cm wouldn't the final answer)....
442.6 / 3 = 147.5 jelly beans, approximately.
So, can they fit 100,000? No
Can we fit 10,000 in there? No
Can we fit 100? Yes.
Can we fit 1? Certainly
The most reasonable lower-limit would then be 100.
