Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller room have an area of x^2

Let the larger room have an area of (x + 3)^2

(x+3) ^2 + x^2 = 89               Be careful not to make it 89^2.

x^2 + 6x + 9 + x^2 = 89        Expand the binomial squared

2x^2 + 6x + 9 - 89 = 0          Subtract 89 from both sides

2x^2 + 6x + 9 - 89 = 0          Combine

2x^2 + 6x - 90=0                  Divide by 2

x^2 + 3x - 45 = 0         This factors.

(x + 9)(x- 5) = 0

X + 9 gives nothing useful

x - 5 = 0

x = 5

x + 3 = 5+3 = 8

So the answer is A

A city has 3 new houses for every 9 old houses. If there are 15 new houses in the city, how many old houses are there?
Arisa [49]

Answer:

45 old houses

Step-by-step explanation:

new houses : old houses

3 : 9

15 : ?

(3 = 1st ratio and 9 = 2nd ratio)

To find the missing ratio, divide the first ratio from the new ratio:

15 / 3 = 5

Take the product and multiply that by the second ratio to find the missing ratio:

9 x 5 = 45

D:  We solve this in exactly the same way in which we solved the previous area problem.  Side length is s, area is s^2.  Here, side length is 5 in; area is 25 in^2.
the problem does say, however, not to include units in your answer.  Thus, just write "25."
