Answer:

 length:  13 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

width:  x

length:  3x - 2

Area = Length * Width

65 = x(3x - 2)

65 = 3x² - 2x

3x² - 2x - 65 = 0

(3x +  13)( x -  5) = 0

3x + 13 = 0       and     x - 5 = 0

3x = -13                             x = 5

x = - 13/3

**Width cannot be a negative number so we'll discard -13/3.

width:  x = 5

length:  3x - 2 = 3(5) - 2 = 13

Find the measure of M
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

∠M = 78º

∠N = 68º

∠P = 34º

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that the inside of a triangle is equal to 180º. we also know that angle p and angle q equal 180º when added together because that's the angle of a straight line. first we need to find angle p.

180 - 146 = 34º

now we can set it up so that all the angles equal 180º when added together.

(5y + 3) + (4y + 8) + 34 = 180

5y + 4y = 9y

9y + 3 + 8 + 34 = 180

3 + 8 + 34 = 45

9y + 45 = 180

    -45      -45

-------------------

9y = 135

÷9      ÷9

y = 15

now we can plug 15 in for y

(5 x 15 + 3) = 78º

(4 x 15 + 8) = 68º

to double check, add all three angles and make sure they equal 180º

78 + 68 + 34 = 180

community group is planning the expansion of a square flower garden in the city park if each side of the original Garden is incr
JulijaS [17]
4mm
The sides of the new garden can be represented by x+9. x is the original size and 9 is the added 9mm. Multiply the sides to get (x+9)(x+9) or (x+9)^2
this will equal the area. Create an equation to solve for the unknown original length.
169=(x+9)^2
Take the square root of both sides
13=x+9
Subtract both sides by 9
4=x The original side was 4mm long
