Answer:
I can’t see it good
Step-by-step explanation:
<span>Let the width of the rectangular plot of land be 'x' yards.
Given that the length of the rectangular plot of land is 10 yards more than its width.
So, width of the rectangular plot of land = (x + 10) yards.
Also given that the area of the rectangular plot of land is 600 square yards.
We know that, area of a rectangle = length * width
That is, (x+10) * x = 600
x^2 + 10x = 600
x^2 + 10x - 600 = 0
x^2 + 30x - 20x -600 = 0
x(x + 30) - 20(x + 30) = 0
(x +30)(x -20) =0
Therefore, either (x + 30) = 0 or (x - 20) = 0
If x + 30 = 0, then x = -30 and
If x - 20 = 0, then x = 20
Since 'x' represents the width of a rectangular plot of land it cannot be negative.
Therefore,
width of the rectangular plot of land = 20 yards
length of the rectangular plot of land= x + 10 = 30 yards</span>
Answer: Kayla used 2 5/24 cups of paint all together.
Step-by-step explanation:
Kayla paints a bookcase by using
1 5/6 cups of paint on the outside of the bookcase. Converting 1 5/6 cups to improper fraction, it becomes 11/6 cups of paint.
She also used 3/8 cup of paint on the inside.
Therefore, the total number of cups of paint that Kayla used all together would be
11/6 + 3/8 = (44 + 9)/24 = 53/24 cups of paint. Converting to mixed fraction, it becomes
2 5/24 cups of paint
