Answer:

8 Inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The length would be w+5, making your equation (5)(w+5)(w)=120, which can be simplified to 5w²+25w-120=0. Then take out a GCF of 5, giving you 5(w²+5w-24)=0. Find the factors and get (w+8)(w-3). Your solutions are -8 and 3. -8 can be taken out, so the final answer is 3. Then you plug it back into the length, so 3+5 is 8.

A coffee mixture has beans that sell for 0.20 a pound and beans that sell for 0.68. If 120 pounds of beans create a mixture wort
Andrew [12]
X=pounds of coffee bean  ($0.20 per pound)
y=pounds of coffee bean ($0.68 per pound )

We can suggest this system of equations:
x+y=120
(0.20x+0.68 y) / (x+y)=0.54 ⇒  (0.2x+0.68y)=0.54(x+y)

We can solve this system by substitution method.
x+y=120      ⇒  y=120-x

0.2x+0.68(120-x)=0.54[x+(120-x)]
0.2x+81.6-0.68x=0.54(120)
-0.48x+81.6=64.8
-0.48x=64.8-81.6
-0.48x=-16.8
x=-16.8/-0.48
x=35

y=120-x=120-35=85

Answer: the coffee mixture has 35 pounds of coffee beans sold to $0.2 a pound, and 85 pounds of coffee beans sold to $0.68 a pound, the solutions is reasonable because the price of a coffee mixture ($0.54 a pound) is greater  than $0.2 and smaller than $0.68.
