Let the width of the table be = x inches

As the length of a table is 16 inches more than its width, so length = x+16

Area of the rectangular table = 720 square inches

Area of rectangle = length*width

720=x(x+16)

720=x^{2}+16x

x^{2}+16x-720=0

x^{2}+36x-20x-720=0

x(x+36)-20(x+36)=0

(x-20)(x+36)=0

x=20 and x=-36

Neglect the negative value as length and width cannot be negative

So, width = 20 inches

Length = x+16 = 20+16 = 36 inches

Hence, length is 36 inches and width is 20 inches.

Given triangle, ABC is congruent to triangle EDC find A
arlik [135]

Answer:

m<A = 30 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

m < C in triangle ABC = m < C in EDC so

x + 13 + 42 + x + 13 = 180

2x = 180 - 13 - 13 - 42

2x = 112

x = 56.

So m < C = 56+13 = 69.

m < B = m < D = 81

M < A = 180 - 69 - 81

= 180 - 150 = 30.

Bhairav collected Rs.600 in his piggy bank by putting in Rs.2 and Rs.5 coins. The number of Rs.5 coins are twice as many as Rs.2
Anna [14]

Answer:

100 Rs 5 coins and 50 Rs 2 coins

Step-by-step explanation:

Bhairav collected Rs.600 in his piggy bank by putting in Rs.2 and Rs.5 coins. The number of Rs.5 coins are twice as many as Rs.2 coins

Let x be the number of 5 coins

and y be the number of 2 coins

The number of Rs.5 coins are twice as many as Rs.2 coins

x=2y

5x+2y=600

Replace x with 2y

5x+2y=600\\5(2y)+2y=600\\10y+2y=600\\12y=600\\y=50

x=2y\\x=2(50)\\x=100

So 100 Rs 5 coins and 50 Rs 2 coins

What were the<br> conditions in Jewish<br> ghettos under Nazi<br> rule?
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Conditions in the ghettos were appalling. For example, the majority of the apartments in the Warsaw ghetto were unheated during winter, and the Nazis decided that the inhabitants of the Warsaw ghetto could survive on an official food allocation of 300 calories per day (compared with 634 calories for the Poles and 2,310 for the Germans).

The Nazis ordered Jews to wear identifying badges or armbands with a yellow Star of David on them in the ghettos. Many Jews were also required to perform forced labor for the German Reich. The Nazi-appointed Jewish councils (Judenrat) and Jewish police maintained order within the ghettos and were forced by the Germans to facilitate deportations to the extermination camps.
