length = 4 yards and width = 3.5 yards
let width be w then length is 2w - 3
area = w(2w - 3) = 14 (rearrange in standard form )
2w² - 3w - 14 = 0 ← in standard form
(2w - 7 )(w + 2 ) = 0 ← in factored form
equate each factor to zero and solve for w
2w - 7 = 0 ⇒ w = 3.5
w + 2 = 0 ⇒ w = - 2
but w > 0, hence w = 3.5
width = 3.5 yards and length = (2 × 3.5 ) - 3 = 4 yards
1. Write out the problem: 3x+12/3
2. Find the common factor: 3(x+4)/3
3. Cancel out the threes.
4. Once you cancel them out you get: x+4
Hope I could help. Have a great day!:-)))
Choice a is a good one by the way
Answer: one solution
Step-by-step explanation:
CONCEPT:
- One solution is when the final variable would be able to find a solution.
- Infinite solution is when the equations result in 0=0, meaning any number will fit
- No solution is when the equation results in both sides on equal.
SOLVE:
Given
3/4x-7=3(1/6x+1)
Expand Parenthesis
3/4x-7=1/2+3
Multiply both sides by the LCM of fractions (Least Common Multiple)
4(3/4x-7)=4(1/2x+3)
3x-28=2x+12
Subtract both sides by 2x
3x-28-2x=2x+12-2x
x-28=12
Add both sides by 28
x-28+28=12+28
x=40
Since we are able to get exactly one solution, there is only one solution.
Hope this helps!! :)
