Answer:

l = 7 in; w = 3 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a rectangle is

A = lw

Data:

A = 21 in²

l = w + 4

Calculation:

                 21 = (w + 4) × w

                 21 = w² + 4w

w² + 4w - 21 = 0

(w + 7)(w - 3) = 0

w + 7 = 0     w - 3 = 0

      w = -7         w = 3

We reject the negative value, so w = 3 in.

21 = l × 3

l = 7

The rectangle is 7 in long and 3 in wide.

In example 4, the volume of the beach ball is 17,000 cubic inches. Find the radius to the nearest inch. Use 3.14 for pi
blagie [28]

Volume of a sphere formula is: V=4 /3 πr^3

You know v=17000 and pi=3.14

17 000 = 4/3 x 3.14 x r^3

(divide 17 000 by 4/3 x 3.14 ) --> r^3 = 4060.51 (2dp)

(cube root is to get just r) r = 15.95 inches (2dp)

There 15 inches to the nearest inch.

Hope this is correct! :D
