Answer:  width = 300

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Area (A) = Length (L) x width (w)

Given: A = 268,500

           L = 3w - 5

           w = w

268,500 = (3w - 5) x (w)

268,500 = 3w² - 5w

            0 = 3w² - 5w - 268,500

            0 = (3w + 895) (w - 300)

   0 = 3w + 895        0 = w - 300

  -985/3 = w             300 = w

Since width cannot be negative, disregard w = -985/3

So the only valid answer is: w = 300

  PLZZZZZZZ HELPP  Which ordered pair is the solution to the system of equations? {y=2x−15} {4x+3y=−5} (5, −5) (4, −7) (0, 6) (7
Sophie [7]

solution is (4, - 7 )

given the equations

y = 2x - 15 → (1)

4x + 3y = - 5 → (2)

substitute y = 2x - 15 into (2)

4x + 3(2x - 15) = - 5

4x + 6x - 45 = - 5

10x - 45 = - 5 ( add 45 to both sides )

10x = 40 ( divide both sides by 10 )

x = 4

substitute x = 4 into (1) for corresponding value of y

y = (2 × 4 ) - 15 = 8 - 15 = - 7

solution is (4, - 7 )

The amount of workers varies inversely with the time, in days, to complete a project. Five workers can complete a certain projec
Feliz [49]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  8

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of days has gone down by a factor of 15/24. The number of workers is inversely proportional, so must increase by a factor of 24/15 = 8/5.

  (5 workers) × (8/5) = 8 workers

8 workers are needed to complete the project in 15 days.
