Answer: Length = 9 units
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L represent the length of the rectangle.
The width of a rectangle is 2 units less than the length. It means that the width of the rectangle is (L - 2) units.
The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as
Area = length × width
The area of the rectangle is 63 units. It means that
L(L - 2) = 63
L² - 2L = 63
L² - 2L - 63 = 0
L² + 7L - 9L - 63 = 0
L(L + 7) - 9(L + 7) = 0
L - 9 = 0 or L + 7 = 0
L = 9 or L = - 7
Since the length cannot be negative, then
L = 9 units
Width = 9 - 2 = 7 units
Let the number be x
15 × x² = 20 × x
⇒ 15x² = 20x
⇒ 15x² / x = 20
⇒ 15x = 20
⇒ x = 20/15
⇒ x = 4/3
The number is 4/3

That dot means multiplication
abc,bca,cba,cab,bac ? then just rotate the others like I did
<span>Let x be
additional food item the homeroom B should collect to have greater item per student than
homeroom A.</span>
(22 +24 + x) /
16 > (30 + 42 + 21) /24
(22 +24 + x)
> 3.875 (16)
X > 16
<span>So they should
collect more than 16 food item to have a greater item per student</span>
