The area of a rectangle is equal  L x  W   

4 cm longer than it is wide   L = 4 + <span>W
</span>
L x  W = 117     we replace L here 

(4 + <span>W ) x W = 117 
</span>
4W + W ^2  = 117 

<span>4W + W ^2  -117 = 0
</span>W ^2 +4 W -117 = 0

W² + 4W - 117 = 0

<span>
THEN u want to use the </span>use the quadratic formula
 

OR Factoring gives us

(W + 13)(W - 9) = 0

W = -13 or 9

But it can't be negative, so

W = 9  and L= 9+4 = 13

what is consecutive whole numbers? I have to write an algebraic expression for the sum of three consecutive whole numbers... :(
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

Consecutive whole numbers (or integers) are numbers that directly follow one another.

Eg: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 are consecutive whole numbers.

Step-by-step explanation:

Three consecutive even integers can be represented by x, x+2, x+4. The sum is 3x+6, which is equal to 108.

or

let the three consecutive whole numbers is x, x+1,and x+2

x + x+1 + x+2 = 4+2(x+1)

3x+3=4+2x+2

3x-2x=6-3

x=3

the other two numbers are 3+1=4,and 3+2=5

so the three numbers are 3,4 and 5

The steps below show the incomplete solution to find the value of x for the equation
mafiozo [28]
Step 1: 6x - 2x - 5 = -6 + 21 
Step 2: 6x - 2x - 5 = 15 
Step 3: 4x - 5 = 15 

The next step would be to add 5 to both sides of the equation. 
so Step 3: 4x - 5 = 15 .......add 5 to both sides would make 
Step 4: 4x = 20 
 
So after the next step you would have 4x = 20 

Hope this helps! :)
