Answer: Length = 15 meters
Width = 2 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of a rectangle = 2l + 2w
Area of a rectangle = l × w
where l = length
w = width
Therefore,
2l + 2w = 34 ...... i
l × w = 30 ........ ii
From equation i
2l + 2w = 34
Divide through by 2.
l + w = 17 ...... iii
Then, l = 17 - w ........ iv
Put equation iv into ii
l × w = 30
(17 - w) × w = 30
17w - w² = 30
w² - 17w + 30 = 0
w² - 15w - 2w + 30 = 0
w(w - 15) - 2(w - 15) = 0
(w - 2) = 0
w = 0 + 2 = 2
w - 15 = 0
w = 0 + 15 = 15
Length = 15 meters
Width = 2 meters
Answer:
lets call the children, c, and call adult, a,
c+a= 52 eq 1: a=52-c
c=3a eq 2
take a's value from eq 1 and plug it into eq 2
c=3(52-c)
c=156-3c
4c=156
c=39 the number of children that attended the ball game.
