35 = 5*7
7 = 5*5 -18

The dimensions of the rectangle are: length = 7 cm, width = 5 cm.

_____
It is handy to know your times tables.

___
If you want, you can write a couple of equations and solve them.
.. L = 5W -18
.. LW = 35
Substituting for L, we have
.. (5W -18)W = 35
.. 5W^2 -18W -35 = 0 . . . . put in standard form
.. (W -5)*(5W +7) = 0 . . . . . factor
.. W = 5 or -7/5 . . . . . . . . . we are only interested in the positive solution

The width of the rectangle is 5 cm; its length is 7 cm.

Jane is building eight 3-legged stools. Each leg is 1/2 yard long. She can cut the legs from wooden rods that are sold in 2-yard
jonny [76]

Answer:

n = 6\,rods

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of legs needed to build the stools are:

x = (8) \cdot (3)

x = 24

Likewise the total length of the legs is:

L_{tot} = 24\cdot (0.5\,yd)

L_{tot} = 12\,yd

Lastly, the quantity of rods that needed to buy is:

n = \frac{12\,yd}{2\,\frac{yd}{rod} }

n = 6\,rods
