I am not so sure but I think the answer is 12
Answer:
because the length is 4 feet more than the width
=> the length is x + 4 (feet)
because the base has an area of 21 square feet
=> x(x + 4) = 21
<=> x² + 4x = 21
Answer:
16
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Remember that 
</u>
(-2i)(8i)
16
Let the number of gallons consumed be the first car be x, and that of the second car, y. Then:
x + y = 50 . . . . . . . (1)
20x + 15y = 850. . . (2)
(1) x 20 => 20x + 20y = 1000 . . . (3)
(2) - (3) => -5y = -150 => y = -150/-5 = 30
From (1), x + 30 = 50 => x = 50 - 30 = 20
Therefore, first car consumed 20 gallons and the second consumed 30 gallons.
