It would take Preston 6.5 hours to paint 812.5 square feet. You divide 375 by 3 to get the hourly rate which is 125. Once you get 125, you divide 812.5 by 125 to get the amount of hours it takes Preston. YOU'RE WELCOME :D

The area of a rectangle is 77ft and the length of the rectangle is 3ft more than double the width. Find the dimensions of the re
Radda [10]
Let b= length and a=width
Area= a*b  and the problem said b=2a+3 (the length is 3ft more than double the width)
Replace b into Area formula:
Area= a*(2a+3)   and we know that Area=77ft from the problem, so:
77=2a^2+3a now order and equal to zero:
2a^2+3a=77 now solve this with quadratic formula and you will get so values for a: -7ft and 5.5ft as you know the dimensions could not be negative so the correct answer for "a" side is 5.5ft, for getting the b side you haeve to replace a=5.5 into b=2a+3 and you will get b=2*5.5+3= 14ft.
Finished.

Find the least common denominators for these two rational expressions 1/a 8/8a^2
Nikitich [7]
Next time, please separate the expressions with a comma, semicolon or the word "and."

I need to assume that you meant "8/(8a^2)"  If that's the case, then what you have here is

 1                  8
---     and -----------
 a                8a^2

I would then cancel the 8s, obtaining:

 1                  1
---     and -----------
 a                a^2
                                                            a
and then multiply  1/a by (a/a):      -----------
                                                           a^2

to obtain 

  a                1
------- and -------
  a^2           a^2

There is only one LCD here, and it's "a^2."
