The length of a rectangle is 6 more than twice the width. if the area is 40 cm^2, find the length and breadth of the rectangle

ra1l [238]

Answer: 3.217 & 12.434

Step-by-step explanation:

If we use w to represent the width, the length will be 6 more than 2 times w.

Hence, the length is $2w+6$ .

The area of a rectangle would be its length times its width, so let's make an equation to represent it's area.

$A=w(2w+6)$

We can also substitute 40 in for A as it's given in the question.

$40 = w(2w+6)$

Distributing w by multiplying it by both terms in the parentheses, we get

$40 = 2w^2+6w$

We can make the equation simpler by dividing both sides by 2.

$20 = w^2+3w$

Subtracting both sides by 20 will make the left-hand side 0.

$0=w^2+3w-20$

Now that we have put this quadratic equation into standard form (ax²+bx+c), we can find its solutions using the quadratic formula.

For reference, the quadratic formula is

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

In this case, a is 1, b is 3, and c is -20.

Substituting, we get

$w=\frac{-3\pm\sqrt{3^2-4(1)(-20)}}{2(1)}$

$w= \frac{-3\pm\sqrt{9+80}}{2}$

$w=\frac{-3+\sqrt{89}}{2}\hspace{0.1cm}or\hspace{0.1cm}\frac{-3-\sqrt{89}}{2}$

Since the second solution results in a negative number, it cannot be the length of w.

$w=\frac{-3+\sqrt{89}}{2}\approx3.217$

The width/breadth of the rectangle is 3.217 cm.

To calculate the length, let's substitute the width into the expression for the length:

$l=2(3.217)+6$

$l=12.434$

The length of this rectangle is 12.434 cm.

Priya is hosting a poetry club meeting this week and plans to have fruit punch and cheese for the meeting. She is preparing 8 ou

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

i) Number of people in club = 12

ii) 96 ounces of fruit punch for 12people

iii) 24 ounces of cheese for 12 people

iv) Priya's budget for poetry club meeting in dollars = $7.87

Step-by-step explanation:

We are not given the options for the equations that could represent the quantities and constraints in this situation. We can tell we are to represent the information given above.

Number of people in the club = 12

8 ounces of fruit punch per person

For 12 people = 12×8 = 96 ounces of fruit punch

2 ounces of cheese per person

For 12 people = 12×2 = 24 ounces of cheese

A package of cheese = 16 ounces

The costs for 1package = $3.99

The costs for 16 ounces of cheese = $3.99

The cost for 24 ounces of cheese = (24×3.99)/16 = 5.985

The cost for 24 ounces of cheese = $5.99

One-gallon jug of fruit punch = 128 ounces

The cost of One-gallon jug of fruit punch = $2.50

The costs of 128 ounces of fruit punch = $2.50

The costs for 96 ounces of fruit punch = (96×2.5)/128 = 1.875

The costs for 96 ounces of fruit punch = $1.88

Priya's budget for poetry club meeting in dollars = $5.99 + $1.88 = $7.87

Cost per item for x number of people:

y = x(2.5/128) + x (3.99/16)

y = x(0.0195) + x(0.2494)

Cost equation for Priya's budget:

y = 96x(2.5/128) + 24x (3.99/16)

y = 96x(0.0195) + 24x(0.2494)

Since the total number of people to attend the meeting is 12, the constraint = 0≤x≤12

Find the measure of angle X.

densk [106]

Answer:

x = 23 degrees

Because if you look at diagram x is vertical to angle FBC, and angle FEC and angle EBA are alternate interior angles so they are equal to each other, and AC is a straight line which means it equals to 180 degrees.

$4x+65+x = 180$

x = 23 degrees

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If x was more than 1, then it would be impossible because fx would have to be even, but 4x+3 would be odd. Therefore, x must equal 1, and f must equal 7. This means that 3f=21
