Length of the rectangle is 8 units
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Find the length, let width be x.
Area of the rectangle = 48 units
Length = x + 2
⇒ Area = Length × Breadth
48 = x (x + 2)
48 = x² + 2x
x² + 2x - 48 = 0
x² + 8x - 6x + 48 = 0 (Product Sum rule to factorise)
x(x + 8) - 6(x + 8) = 0
(x - 6)(x + 8) = 0
⇒ x = 6, -8 (negative value is neglected)
∴ x = 6
x + 2 = 8
Answer:
A trick I did when it comes to multiplying by 10, is just add a 0 at the end of the number your multiplying. Try for yourself!
We have to calculate the value of the car after 3 years at the start of 2017.
= 1200(1-0.30)^{3}
= 12000 × 0.343
= $4,116
Lets work backwards, he had $5 after it all, and spent $1.25 on a snack, so we add that to the remainder, which is $6.25. then he spent half of that on whatever stuff he likes, so add $6.25 and $6.25, which is $12.50
