Answer:

width = 8 feet and length = 12 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width be w then the length = 3w - 12 ( 12 less than 3 times the width )

The area (A) of a rectangle is

A = length × width, that is

w(3w - 12) = 96 ← area of floor

3w² - 12w = 96 ( subtract 96 from both sides )

3w² - 12w - 96 = 0 ← in standard form for a quadratic equation

Divide all terms by 3

w² - 4w - 32 = 0

Consider the product of the factors of the constant term ( - 32) which sum to give the coefficient of the w- term (- 4)

The factors are - 8 and + 4, since

- 8 × 4 = - 32 and - 8 + 4 = - 4, hence

(w - 8)(w + 4) = 0

Equate each factor to zero and solve for w

w - 8 = 0 ⇒ w = 8

w + 4 = 0 ⇒ w = - 4

However, w > 0 ⇒ w = 8

Hence width = 8 feet

length = 3w - 12 = (3 × 8) - 12 = 24 - 12 = 12 feet

I don’t understand this can someone help me?
solong [7]

Answer:

f

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that:

X is congruent to angle Z which means they are the same size

the straight line below is equal to 180

Y is a right angle so its equal to 90

So that means:

if x and z are equivalent that means they are equal to 2x essentially

and if you add 90 you will get the total of the line

Hope this helps!!! :)

If a single card is drawn from a standard 52-card deck, in how many ways can a card other than nine be obtained?
Novosadov [1.4K]

Answer:

48 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 52 cards in a deck and four nines. This means that nines account for 4/52 of the deck. The opposite of 4/52 (idr the math word for that) is 48/52. Therefore, there are 48 other ways that a card other than nine can be obtained.

-6(y+15)=-3y+6<br> what value of y makes the equation true
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

y = -32

Step-by-step explanation:

-6(y+15)=-3y+6

Distribute

-6y - 90 = -3y +6

Add 6y to each side

-6y -90+6y = -3y+6y +6

-90 = 3y+6

Subtract 6 from each side

-90 -6 = 3y +6-6

-96 = 3y

Divide by 3

-96/3 = 3y/3

-32 = y
