Answer:
subtract 17 on both sides
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>ANSWER: </u>
The length and breadth of the rectangle are 18 m and 12 m.
<u>SOLUTION:
</u>
Let the length and breadth of a rectangle be "l" and "b"
Given,length and breadth of the rectangle are in ratio 3 : 2
Then, length : breadth :: 3 : 2
-- eqn 1
After changing the length and breadth by 1 meter on both sides, length and breadth becomes L+2 and b+2
Now, the ratio of length to breadth is 10 : 7
Length : breadth :: 10 : 7


7l + 14 = 10b + 20
10b – 7l + 20 -14 = 0
10b – 7l + 6 =0 -- eqn (2)
Now, substitute “l” value in (2)


20b – 21b + 12 = 0
-b + 12 = 0
b = 12.
Substitute b value in (2)
10(12) – 7l + 6 = 0
120 + 6 = 7l
7l = 126
l = 18
hence, the length and breadth of the rectangle are 18 m and 12 m.
8n-20=15+n
n=5
20 less than 8 times a number = 8(n)-20 same as (=) 15 more (+) than a number(n) 15+n
Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
-4(9-3x)=0
-36+12x=0
12x=0+36
12x=36
x=36/12
x=3
