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

WITCHER [35]

Answer:

C = (36/3)* $24

C = $288

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are asked to write an equation for cost c of the section of fence needed for the garden and the solve for the value c.

C is already assigned as the cost of the sections she needs for her garden.

We were made to understand that the perimeter of the garden is 36 feet, with a 3 feet each section. Now, what we need to do is to know the number of sections that we have. Since, each section is 3 feet, and the total perimeter is 36 feet, this means that the total number of sections needed would be 36/3. Each of the section as we were told costs $24, so we can then proceed to calculate the value of C from there.

C = (36/3)* $24

This is the equation that gives the cost. The actual value of the cost is thus:

C = 12 * 24 = $288

The total cost of the sections if the Fence is $288

I'm kinda lost in this problem. Can you teach me how to solve these ​

53) Vertical angles are congruent, so m\angle IDA=121^{\circ}

54) \angle YDA and \angle YDF are supplementary, so m\angle YDA=180^{\circ}-121^{\circ}=59^{\circ}

55) Because vertical angles are congruent, m\angle FDI=59^{\circ}. Now, because DR bisects \angle FDI, this means m\angle RDI=\frac{59}{2}=29.5^{\circ}

56) This is a geometric sequence where the next term is obtained by multiplying the previous term by -2, so the next two numbers are 16, -32
