Answer:
Tara's current expression finds how much the school will be keeping. 50 x 2/5 (also written as 50 x 0.4) totals out as 20. $20 is 2/5 of $50. The expression that Tara SHOULD have written to find how much goes to the candle company would be 50 x 3/5 (also written as 50 x 0.6), as this adds up to 30. $30 is 3/5 of $50.
Step-by-step explanation:
50/5 = 10 which means that 1/5 of 50 = 10.
2/5 of 50 ($20) is kept by the school. This is what Tara's expression finds. This means that $30 is sent to the candle company, and can be found with the expression 50 x 3/5.
The decimals are created by dividing the numerator of the fraction by the denominator (I find it easier to do math with decimals).
Answer:
The length is 12metres, the width is 6metres
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose the width is x, the length is x+6
The square is 72. The square of rectangular field is equal to product of length and width.
so x(x+6)=72
x^2+6x-72=0
a=1 b=6 c=-72
D= b^2-4ac= 6*6+288= 36+288= 324
sqrtD= 18
x1= (-b-sqrtD)/2a=(-6-18)/2= -12 (it is negative, but width is only positive. So this root doesn't match)
x2=(-b+sqrtD)/2a= (-6+18)/2= 12/2=6 - the width
The length is 6+6=12
