Consider the equation 2x+1=16

Mathematics
2 answers:
Aliun [14]2 years ago
6 0

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 1 = 16

2x = 15 (subtract 1 on both sides)

x = 7.5 (divide 2 om both sides)

Since 7.5 is not an integer, (a) is No.

However 7.5 is rational, therefore (b) is Yes.

The length of a rectangle is 6 inches more than its width. Its area is 91 square inches. The length is .
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

13 in

Step-by-step explanation:

let w be width then length is w + 6

the area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as

A = length × width , then

A = w(w + 6) = 91 , that is

w² + 6w = 91 ( subtract 91 from both sides )

w² + 6w - 91 = 0 ← in standard quadratic form

(w + 13)(w - 7) = 0 ← in factored form

equate each factor to zero and solve for w

w + 13 = 0 ⇒ w = - 13

w - 7 = 0 ⇒ w = 7

however, w > 0 then w = 7

and length = w + 6 = 7 + 6 = 13 in
