2x+3=-7
-3=-7-3=-10
2x=-10
X=-5
Answer: 16 feet is the width and 25 is length
Step-by-step explanation:
x*(2x-7)=400
Word problem written in numerical form^^^^
Solve for x to get 16
length = 2(16)-7= 25
Check our work
16*25=400 yay
There are 81 girls to every 72 boys in total, which can be represented by 81/72, which put into decimal form, is 1.125. If you then take the number of boys in the group, 16, and multiply it by this number (because the problem states that the ratio is constant) you can find the number of girls in the group.
16*1.125=18
So there are 18 girls in a group with 16 boys.
Hope this helps with the answer ;)
