L=2w-3 

w(2w-3)=54

2w²- 3w-54=0

A= 2 , B= -3, C= -54

sub values into quadratic formula
 i attached picture of formula

Final answer:  you will be given 2 answers 6 and -4.5. -4.5 is rejected since a negative value cannot represent length because that just doesn't make sense.

w=6

Check:
L=2w-3
=2(6)-3
=12-3
=9
  9*6=54

Therefore the dimensions of the photograph are 6 cm by 9 cm

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

The range of data is 9

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

range of data = maximum value of data - minimum value of data

Now, we can find maximum value of data

and minimum value of data

so,

maximum value of data =9

minimum value of data =0

now, we can plug these values

and we get

range of data =9-0

range of data =9
