The length of a rectangle is 5 meters less than twice the width. If the area of the rectangle is 273 meters, find the dimensions

AleksandrR [38]

The length of the rectangle = 16 meters

The width of the rectangle = 10.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The Area of the rectangle is 273.

Step 1 :

Let, the width of the rectangle be 'x'

The length of the rectangle is 2x - 5

Step 2 :

Area of the rectangle = length $\times$ width

273 = (2x - 5) x

273 = 2x^2 - 5x

Step 3 :

The equation formed is 2x^2 - 5x -273 = 0

a= coefficient of x^2 = 2

b= coefficient of x = -5

c = constant = -273

Find the roots of the equation, to find the width.

Step 4 :

Find the roots using factorizing method,

ac = 2 $\times$ -273 = -546 and b= -5

Factorizing -546 as -26 $\times$ 21

The product of -26 $\times$ 21 = -546

The sum of -26 + 21 = -5

Step 5 :

The roots of the equation 2x^2 - 5x -273 = 0 are x= -26/2 and x= 21/2

The values of x are x= -13 and x= 10.5

Since the width cannot be a negative value, neglect x= -13

Step 6 :

Therefore,

The width of the rectangle = 10.5 meters

The length of the rectangle = 2x-5

= 2(10.5) - 5

= 21 - 5

length = 16 meters

six friends share 5 meat pies. each friend first eats half of a meat pie. how much more meat pie does each friend need to eat to

Margaret [11]

So at the beginning, the friends eat 3 meat pies in total. So that leaves two meat pies left.
So basically, we divide the meat pies by the number of friends.
2/6 is 1/3
So each friend needs to eat 1/3 of a meat pie

150 decreased by 60%

kodGreya [7K]

Hello there the answer to your question would be 60. Since 150-(60%*150) = 150 - 60 *150 = (1-60%)*150 = (100%-60%) * 150= 40% * 150 = 40/100 * 150 = 40 * 150 ÷ 100 = 6000/100 = 60. Hope this helps you out, have a great day!

Marta wrote six and eighty hundredths. Nicky wrote six and eight tenths. Who wrote the greater number? explain

nataly862011 [7]

The numbers are both equal because, 6.80 is six and eight hundredths, and 6.8 is six and eight tenths. When writing decimals any zero added to the end of the number has no value, 8/10 as a fraction is equal to 80/100 if simplified, so Nicky and Marta wrote equal numbers. :)
