A=l*w

A=3*10

30=A

add x to l and w the area doubled

60 = (3+x)(10+x)

FOIL

60 = 30 +3x+10x+x^2

60 = x^2 +13x+30

subtract 60 from each side

0=x^2 +13x-30

factor

0=(x+15) (x-2)

x+15=0  x-2=0

x=-15  x=2

x cannot be negative so x=2

new dimensions

3+2, 10+2

Answer: 5m ,12m

A typical middle-income household in 1980 earned $34,757. A similar household in 2009 earned $38,550. What was the relative incr
S_A_V [24]

Given conditions are :

In 1980's, a typical middle-income household earned=  $34,757

In 2009, a similar middle-income household earned= $38,550

And we have to find relative increase in income for these households from 1980 to 2009.

So first we will find the total increase in amounts.

38550-34757=3793

Relative increase = \frac{3793}{34757}*100

= 10.91% or rounding it off we get approx 11%.

Hence, the answer is 11%.
