Answer:

w=6

l=14

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = l*w

So:

w*(w+8)=84

Then, just find w, and w+8.

w^2+8w=84\\w^2+8w-84=0\\(w-6)(w+14)=0\\w-6=0, w=6\\w+14=0, w=-14

Length cannot be negative, so the width is 6.

Length = width + 8 = 6+8=14

Kimi and Jordan are each working during the summer to earn money in addition to
cluponka [151]

Their earnings would be the same after 4 hours

Let the number of hours be x, and the weekly earning be y

So, the given parameters are:

<u>Kimi</u>

  • Earnings = $9 per hour
  • Weekly allowance = $8

So, the equation for Kimi's weekly earning is:

y =9x + 8

<u />

<u>Jordan</u>

  • Earnings = $7 per hour
  • Weekly allowance = $16

So, the equation for Jordan's weekly earning is:

y = 7x + 16

Equate both equations

7x + 16 = 9x + 8

Collect like terms

9x - 7x = 16 - 8

2x =8

Divide both sides by 2

x =4

Hence, their earnings would be the same after 4 hours
