The width of a rectangle is 3 units less than the length. The area of the rectangle is 28 units. What is the width, in units, of

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the width W and the length L.

We know the width is 3 less than the length, so:

W = L - 3

And we know the area is 28, so:

28 = WL

If we solve for L in the first equation:

L = W + 3

And substitute into the second equation:

28 = W (W + 3)

28 = W² + 3W

0 = W² + 3W - 28

0 = (W + 7) (W - 4)

W = -7, 4

Since W can't be negative, W = 4 units.

Drinking 8 fluid ounces of milk provides 270.0 milligrams of calcium. How many fluid ounces of milk provide 72.5 milligrams of c

Margarita [4]

Set up a proportion:

$\frac{8}{270} = \frac{x}{72.5}$

The numerator represents fluid ounces of milk, and the denominator represents milligrams of calcium.

Simplify the first fraction to make multiplication easier:

$\frac{8}{270} \div \frac{2}{2} = \frac{4}{135}$
$\frac{4}{135} = \frac{x}{72.5}$

Cross multiply the fractions:

$72.5 * 4 = 290$
$135x = 290$

Divide both sides by 135 to get x by itself:

$290 \div 135 = 2.1$
$x = 2.1$

2.1 fluid ounces of milk provide 72.5 milligrams of calcium.

D = 1/2 a t^2 is given. And it wants you to find t in terms if a and d. Which means, you need to arrange the equation and let t be alone.

If you let t^2 alone ;

2d/a = t^2

And square root t^2 will give you t ;
SquareRoot(2d/a) = t

The answer is (2)
