The original area of the rectangle is 
<u>Explanation:</u>
width = x
length = x + 2
area of the rectangle = x (x+2)
length = x + 2 + 5 = x+7

Solving this equation, we get
x =5ft
So, original width = 5ft
original length = 5+2ft = 7ft
Thus, original area of the rectangle = 5 X 7ft = 
Therefore, the original area of the rectangle is 
Step-by-step explanation:
- 1a.2.
- b.1/2 base×height
- c.2 ×1/2 base×height
- base×height
b.
- 1m=100cm
- 1m²=100cm×100cm
- 1m²=10000cm²
- 0.25m²=0.25×10000cm²
- 0.25m²=2500cm²
C.
- .3
- .area of rectangle button+area of back+area of top
- d.total surface area =base×height+area of rectangle button+area of back+area of top
Hey there! :D
Pay attention to the given angles.
We know that a circle is equal to 360 degrees.
We know two angles, and the other 2 are the same measure.
170+44= 214
Subtract that from 360, since that is what the circle equals.
360-214= 146
Divide that by two, since there are 2 equal angles left.
146/2= 73
<DOB= 73 degrees.
You were correct, so good work!
I hope this helps!

Solve:
"<span>twice the number minus three times the reciprocal of the number is equal to 1."
3(1)
Let the number be n. Then 2n - ------- = 1
n
Mult all 3 terms by n to elim. the fractions:
2n^2 - 3 = n. Rearranging this, we get 2n^2 - n - 3 = 0.
We need to find the roots (zeros or solutions) of this quadratic equation.
Here a=2, b= -1 and c= -3. Let's find the discriminant b^2-4ac first:
disc. = (-1)^2 - 4(2)(-3) = 1 + 24 = 25.
That's good, because 25 is a perfect square.
-(-1) plus or minus 5 1 plus or minus 5
Then x = ------------------------------ = --------------------------
2(2) 4
x could be 6/4 = 3/2, or -5/4.
You must check both answers in the original equation. If the equation is true for one or the other or for both, then you have found one or more solutions.</span>
Is the question how long would the 185 petri dishes last because if so it would be about 15 days
Hope this helped ;)
