 So, if L = length, and W = width, and we know what the length is, than we know that L = 24. Now here is the equation I've used:  2w=L+3 .
<span>So solve this like so:
</span><span>
2w=24+3 
2w=27 
w=13.5
So the width is 13.5.

Did this help?</span>

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming that strange looking thing is a 9, so begin by multiplying both sides by that denominator to get:

x-9=\sqrt{x}+3 then subtract 3 from both sides to get

x-12=\sqrt{x} and then square both sides to get

x^2-24x+144=x and get everything on one side to solve for x by factoring:

x^2-25x+144=0 and factor that however it is you have learned to factor second-degree polynomials to get that

x = 16 and x = 9. We have to check for extraneous solutions because anytime you manipulate an equation, as we did by squaring both sides, you run the risk of these solutions that actually don't work when you plug them back into the original equation. Let's try 16 first:

\frac{16-9}{\sqrt{16}+3 }=1  If 16 is a solution, then this statement will be mathematically true.

\frac{7}{4+3}=1  and   \frac{7}{7}=1 so 16 works. Let's try 9:

\frac{9-9}{\sqrt{9}+3 }=1  We know that one doesn't work, because 9-9 = 0 and 0 over anything = 0, not 1.

x = 16 is the only solution.

Referring to the figure, find the value of x
asambeis [7]
A scale of 1:50 000 means that every centimetre on the map is equal to 50 000 centimetres (500 metres) in reality.

The distance between two towns on that map is 6cm, therefore in reality there’s 6 * 50 000 = 300 000 centimetres, which is equal to 3 000 metres, which is equal to 3 kilometres.

Simplify: 3a²b + 5ab – 4ab + ab² + 8a²b
Lisa [10]

In order to simplify this expression, we need to add the like terms.

Like terms are terms that have the same variables to the same power.

So we have:

\begin{gathered} 3a^2b+5ab-4ab+ab^2+8a^2b \\ =(3a^2b+8a^2b)+(5ab-4ab)+ab^2 \\ =11a^2b+ab+ab^2 \end{gathered}

Therefore the correct option is the fourth one.
