Answer: Width = 6 meters

Length = 10 meters

Explanation:

Here's the complete question:

A room has an area of 60 square meters and a perimeter of 32 meters. What are the length and width of the room?

Area = Length × Width

Perimeter = 2(Length + Width)

Therefore,

L × W = 60 ....... i

2L + 2W = 32 ....... ii

From equation ii,

2L + 2W = 32

Divide through by 2

L + W = 16

L = 16 - W ........ iii

Put the value of L into equation i

L × W = 60

(16 - W) × W = 60

16W - W² = 60

W² - 16W + 60 = 0

W² - 10W - 6W + 60 = 0

W(W - 10) - 6(W - 10) = 0

(W - 6)(W - 10) = 0

Therefore,

W - 6 = 0

W = 0 + 6

W = 6

Width = 6 meters

Since Length = Area / Width

Length = 60/6

Length = 10 meters

Annette [7]

Answer:

a) The Amalgamated trade union won the strike.

Explanation:

The Homestead Strike was a labor dispute between the Carnegie Steel Company and the Amalgamated Trade Union. There was a battle between the replacement workers that were hired after the strike started and the workers that were on strike. A series of people died and many were injured. In the end, many supporters of the strike left and at the end workers had to return to work. The Amalgamated Trade Union left the strike weaker than before and the Company became stronger operating at full capacity.
