The length of a rectangle is 5 meters less than twice the width. If the area of the rectangle is 273 meters, find the dimensions

AleksandrR [38]

The length of the rectangle = 16 meters

The width of the rectangle = 10.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The Area of the rectangle is 273.

Step 1 :

Let, the width of the rectangle be 'x'

The length of the rectangle is 2x - 5

Step 2 :

Area of the rectangle = length $\times$ width

273 = (2x - 5) x

273 = 2x^2 - 5x

Step 3 :

The equation formed is 2x^2 - 5x -273 = 0

a= coefficient of x^2 = 2

b= coefficient of x = -5

c = constant = -273

Find the roots of the equation, to find the width.

Step 4 :

Find the roots using factorizing method,

ac = 2 $\times$ -273 = -546 and b= -5

Factorizing -546 as -26 $\times$ 21

The product of -26 $\times$ 21 = -546

The sum of -26 + 21 = -5

Step 5 :

The roots of the equation 2x^2 - 5x -273 = 0 are x= -26/2 and x= 21/2

The values of x are x= -13 and x= 10.5

Since the width cannot be a negative value, neglect x= -13

Step 6 :

Therefore,

The width of the rectangle = 10.5 meters

The length of the rectangle = 2x-5

= 2(10.5) - 5

= 21 - 5

length = 16 meters

<1 and <2 form a linear pair. The measure of <2 is six more than twice the measure of <1. Find the measure of <2

MrMuchimi

Answer:

122 Degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are given that angle 1 and 2 make a linear pair:

angle 1 + angle 2 = 180 degrees ----------------------------(1)

We have also been told that angle 2 is 6 more than twice the measure of angle 1

Which means: angle 2 = (2*angle1) + 6 -------------------(2)

From putting the value of angle 2 in (1) from (2)

angle 1 + 2*angle 1 + 6 = 180

3*angle 1 = 174

angle 1 = 58 degrees -----------------------(3)

From (1) and (3):

angle 2 + 58 = 180

angle 2 = 122 degrees

Therefore, the measure of angle 2 is 122 degrees

Which statement is true about the given information?

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer

∴ The true statement is Answer:

The true statement is BD ≅ CE ⇒ 3rd answer

Step-by-step explanation:

- There is a line contained points B , C , D , E

- All points are equal distance from each other

- That means the distance of BC equal the distance of CD and equal

the distance of DE

∴ BC = CD = DE

- That means the line id divided into 3 equal parts, each part is one

third the line

∴ BC = 1/3 BE

∴ CD = 1/3 BE

∴ DE = 1/3 BE

∵ BC = CD

∴ C is the mid-point of BD

∴ BC = 1/2 BD

∵ CD = DE

∴ D is the mid-point of DE

∴ CD = 1/2 CE

- Lets check the answers

* BD = one half BC is not true because BC = one half BD

* BC = one half BE is not true because BC = one third BE

* BD ≅ CE is true because

BD = BC + CD

CE = CD + DE

BC ≅ DE and CD is common

then BD ≅ CE

* BC ≅ BD is not true because BC is one half BD

∴ The true statement is BD ≅ CE
