X=width of a coccer pitch
2x-20=length of a soccer pitch
Area (rectangule)=length x width
We suggest this equation:
x(2x-20)=6000
2x²-20x=6000
2x²-20x-6000=0
x²-10x-3000=0
We solve this quadratic equation:
x=[10⁺₋√(100-4*1*-3000)]/2=[10⁺₋√(100+12000)]/2=
=(10⁺₋110)/2
we have two solutions:
x₁=(10-110)/2=-50, invalid solution.
x₂=(10+110)/2=60
x=60
2x-20=2(60)-20=120-20=100
Solution: the length is 100 m, and the width is 60 m.
To check:
Area=100 m*60 m=6000 m²
The twice of width is =2(60 m)=120 m,
20 m less than twice its width is: 120 m-20 m=100 m=the length.
Okay so the problem starts you off with the fraction (1/4). Sharing equally among 3 people would mean that you'd want to divide it by three so your equation would initially look like (1/4) / 3. Having two dividing signs is confusing so what you do is change the dividing into multiplying by the reciprocal of 3 = 1/3... This would make your expression (1/4) * (1/3) and when you simplify this you should get 1/12 as the answer.
