L = 3 + 2w
Find the width
Area = 54
l × w = 54
(3 + 2w) × w = 54
3w + 2w^2 = 54
2w^2 + 3w - 54 = 0
(2w - 9)(w + 6) = 0
w = 9/2 or w = -6 (width shouldn't be negative)
w = 9/2
w = 4.5 m
Find the length
l = 3 + 2w
l = 3 + 2(4.5)
l = 3 + 9
l = 12 m
The width is 4.5 m, the length is 12 m
To decrease this amount by 15% we must first find out what is 15% percent.
We can do that by multiplying the decimal of 15% by 120
15% = 0.15
0.15 x 120 = 18
So 18 is 15% of 120.
Wait! that's not the answer. We are asked to decrease by 15%
So 120 - 18 = 102
Your answer is £102
Answer:
Maybe the Answer is 504
Step-by-step explanation:
Because 8x7 = 56x9 = 504
2n - 7 = 5n -10
-5n -5n
-3n - 7= -10
+7 +7
-3n = -3
-3/-3 -3/-3
n= 1
