Answer:

C. An increase of 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

50/100 = 60/x

Cross products

50 x  =  6000

Divide 50 by both sides

x  =  120

60 is 120% of 50, so there is a 20% increase

Hope this helps!

The area of a rectangle is x2 - 2x - 15 and the length of the rectangle is x + 3. Find the width of the rectangle.
Alexandra [31]
The area of the triangle could be determined by multiplying the length and the width. Since, we are given the area and the length, to find the width, you divide the area by the length:

w = A ÷ l
w = (x2 - 2x - 15) ÷ (x+3)

What do you have to multiply to (x+3) to yield x2 - 2x - 15? That would be x - 5. Since the sum of -5 and 3 = -2 (middle term) and the their product is -15 (last term).

Hence, the width is (x-5).
