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

Hope it helps.

Choose the explanation that shows why ΔADE is similar to ΔABC.

Natasha2012 [34]

Recall that a dilation with center (0, 0) and scale factor $k$ maps $(x,y)$ onto $(kx, ky)$ .

Now, triangle ADE is formed by

$A=(0,0),\quad D=(0,2),\quad E=(4,0)$

Whereas triangle ABC is formed by

$A=(0,0),\quad B=(0,4),\quad C=(8,0)$

In other words, the coordinates of B and C can be obtained by multiplying by 2 the coordinates of D and E.

This means that you get ABC from ADE by dilating with center (0,0) and scale factor 2.

18 3/4 as an improper fraction is 75/4.

75/4 can be re-written as 1875/100 (multiply both sides by 25)

3/50 can be re-written as 6/100 (multiply both sides by 2)
