A rectangle has width that is 6 meters less than the length. The area of the rectangle is 280 square meters. Find the dimensions

salantis [7]

Dimensions are length 20 meter and width 14 meter

Solution:

Let "a" be the length of rectangle

Let "b" be the width of rectangle

Given that,

A rectangle has width that is 6 meters less than the length

Width = length - 6

b = a - 6

The area of the rectangle is 280 square meters

The area of the rectangle is given by formula:

$Area = length \times width$

Substituting the values we get,

$Area = a \times (a-6)\\\\280 = a^2-6a\\\\a^2-6a -280=0$

Solve the above equation by quadratic formula

$\mathrm{For\:a\:quadratic\:equation\:of\:the\:form\:}ax^2+bx+c=0\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}\\\\\quad x_{1,\:2}=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=1,\:b=-6,\:c=-280:\quad a_{1,\:2}=\frac{-\left(-6\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-6\right)^2-4\cdot \:1\left(-280\right)}}{2\cdot \:1}$

$a =\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{36+1120}}{2}\\\\a = \frac{6 \pm \sqrt{1156}}{2}\\\\a = \frac{6 \pm 34}{2}\\\\Thus\ we\ have\ two\ solutions\\\\a = \frac{6+34}{2} \text{ or } a = \frac{6-34}{2}\\\\a = 20 \text{ or } a = -14$

Since, length cannot be negative, ignore a = -14

Thus solution of length is a = 20

Therefore,

width = length - 6

width = 20 - 6 = 14

Thus dimensions are length 20 meter and width 14 meter

5. A community neighborhood wants to

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

51 trees

Step-by-step explanation:

Start at one end of the 50-foot line segment.

At position 0 ft, put one tree.

Then 1 ft from 0 ft, put tree number 2.

One more foot over, at position 2 ft from the start, put tree number 3.

Notice that each tree number is one more than the number of feet.

That means at 50 ft from the stat, you put tree number 51.

Answer: 51 trees
