Answer
W=7
Explanation:
The formula for the perimeter for a rectangle is P = 2L + 2W
The formula for the area of a rectangle is A = LW
where L = length and W = width
P = 22 and A = 28
22 = 2L + 2W
28 = LW
Rewriting the 2nd equation L = 28/W
Substituting this into the first equation
22=2(28/W) + 2W
Reworking the equation to eliminate the denominator
22W = 2(28) + 2W2
22W = 56 + 2W2
and
2W2 - 22W + 56 = 0
Dividing by 2
W2 - 11W + 28 = 0
(W-7)(W-4)
Set each factor equal to 0 and solve each for 0
W = 4, W = 7
then W = 4

Answer:
The answer is the first one: -4 on Edge
Step-by-step explanation:
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem statement says λ<1. If this is true, then the cannonball is slower than the boat, and it will never reach the boat. So I assume it's actually λ>1.
If we say t is the amount of time, then the boat travels south a distance of ut, and the cannonball travels a distance of λut.
v = λut
ut = v/λ
Using Pythagorean theorem:
d² + (ut)² > v²
d² + (v/λ)² > v²
λ²d² + v² > λ²v²
λ²d² > (λ² − 1) v²
λ² / (λ² − 1) > (v/d)²
How fast did he run each mile, that is to say how fast did he run 1 mile.
We can simply find the time it took him to run 1 mile.
He ran 7 miles in 57 3/4 minutes = 57.75 minutes.
In 1 mile he would run = 57.75/7 minutes = 8.25 minutes.
He ran 1 mile, that is each mile in 8.25 minutes.
I hope this helped.
