The dimensions of the house should be 7 m by 13 m.
If the house is to be centered, we will take the same amount from the width as we do from the length of the lot for the dimensions. This gives us (10-x) and (16-x) as the dimensions.
The area of a rectangle is found by multiplying the length and width:
(10-x)(16-x) = 91
Multiplying the binomials we have:
10*16 - x*10 - x*16 -x*(-x) = 91
160 - 10x - 16x --x² = 91
160-10x-16x+x² =91
Combine like terms:
160-26x+x²=91
Rewrite this in standard form:
x²-26x+160=91
Subtract 91 from both sides:
x²-26x+160-91 = 91-91
x²-26x+69 = 0
Factoring this, we look for factors of 69 that sum to -26. -23*-3 = 69 and -23+-3 = -26, so:
(x-23)(x-3) = 0
Using the zero product property we know that either x-23=0 or x-3=0, so x=23 or x=3.
x was the amount we take off of the width and length of the lot; if we took 23m off of it, 10-23 gives us a negative amount, which is not realistic. This means both the width and length are subtracted by 3.
10-3 = 7 and 16-3 = 13.
These are the dimensions of the house.
Answer:
Divide
Step-by-step explanation:
The percentage of the increase is 136%. And this is how u do it 1,900,000/1,400,000=1.36=136%
Answer: The answer to this question is t=9
Step-by-step explanation: This is the linear equation, to solve it we have to simplify the like terms.
-t= 9(t-10)
-t=9t-90
-10t=-90
t= 9
On the right hand side multiply through out by 9 and move 9t to the other side it will change side.
Then divide both sides by -10
