Answer:
The width of the border can be 9 feet or 3.5 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width be x
Length of room = 10 feet
Breadth of room = 15 feet
Length of rug = 10-2x
Breadth of rug = 15-2x
Area of rug =
We are given that the area of the rug is 24 square feet.
So,
---A






Substitute x =9 in A


LHS = RHS
Substitute x = 3.5


LHS = RHS
So, The width of the border can be 9 feet or 3.5 feet.
I hated probability in middle school. I'm not 100% sure but I would go with the 3rd answer choice, 3/100.
Step-by-step explanation:
given
a = - 3
3a² = 3 * ( -3) ²
= 3 * 9
= 27
The value of 3a² is 27.
Since the values are the same on both sides the matrix value is a=1
