Answer:

  7 in

Step-by-step explanation:

For width w in inches, the length is given as 2w+1. The area is the product of length and width, so we have ...

  A = LW

  105 = (2w +1)w

  2w^2 +w -105 = 0

To factor this, we're looking for factors of -210 that have a difference of 1.

  -210 = -1(210) = -2(105) = -3(70) = -5(42) = -6(35) = -7(30) = -10(21) = -14(15)

So, the factorization is ...

  (2w +15)(w -7) = 0

Solutions are values of w that make the factors zero:

  w = -15/2, +7 . . . . . negative dimensions are irrelevant

The width of the rectangle is 7 inches.

What is the surface area of the rectangular pyramid below?
Mrac [35]

Answer:

B - 593.8 ft2

Step-by-step explanation:

I also just finish the quiz and got the question right.

To find the base: 10 x 18 = 180

There are 4 lateral face, two each are conguent:

18 x 14.1 = 253.8

253.8 divided by 2 = 126.9

126.9 x 2 = 253.8

Other conguent sides:

10 x 16 = 160

160 divided by 2 = 80

80 x 2 = 160

Finally: 180 + 253.8 + 160 = 593.8 ft2
