Answer: The minuend is 20000

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the minuend, we use the equation:

$\text{Subtrahend}=\text{Minuend-Difference}$

We are given:

Difference between the two numbers = 7194

Subtraend = 12806

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Minuend}=12806+7194\\\\\text{Minuend}=20000$

Hence, the minuend is 20000

A rectangle is twice as long as it is wide. if its length is increase by 4 cm and its width is decreased by 3 cm, the new rectan

strojnjashka [21]

Now the width is w.
It's twice as long as wide, so now the length is 2w.

If the length is increased by 4 cm, the length will be 2w + 4.
The width is decreased by 3 cm, so the width will be w - 3.

The are of the new rectangle is 100 cm^2.

area = length * width

area = (2w + 4)(w - 3)

The area of the new rectangle is 100, so we get

(2w + 4)((w - 3) = 100

2w^2 - 6w + 4w - 12 = 100

2w^2 - 2w - 112 = 0

w^2 - w - 56 = 0

(w - 8)(w + 7) = 0

w - 8 = 0 or w + 7 = 0

w = 8 or w = -7

A width cannot be negative, so discard w = -7.

w = 8

The width is 8 cm.
The length is twice the width, so the length is 16 cm.

Jerry’s rhombus has a base of 15 inches and a height of 9 inches. Charlene’s rhombus has a base and a height that are 13 the bas

neonofarm [45]

Answer: The area of Charlene's rhombus is nine times smaller than the area of Jerry's rhombus.

Step-by-step explanation:

I will assume that the exercise says " $\frac{1}{3}$ times the base and height of Jerry’s rhombus".
