Step-by-step explanation:

Given :-

The length of the garden 8m greater than 2 times the width.

Area of the garden is 280 m²

Let us consider the length as x and width as y.

Sp, we can day length as :-

x = 8 + 2y ---(1)

Now, we know that:-

Area of Rectangle = Length × Breadth

280 = x * y

We can replace the value of x now,

280 = y × ( 8 + 2y)

280 = 8y + 2y²

2y² + 8y - 280 = 0

y² + 4y - 140 = 0

Factorise it.

(y -10)(y + 14)

Cancelling -ve value, we get the width as 10 metres.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Width = w

Length = 2w + 8

Area of rectangular garden = 280 square meter

length * width = 280

(2w + 8 ) *w = 280

2w * w + 8*w = 280

2w² + 8w = 280

2w² + 8w - 280 = 0

Divide the whole equation by 2

w² + 4w - 140 = 0      

w² + 14w - 10w - 14 *10 = 0

w(w + 14) - 10(w + 14) = 0

(w + 14)(w - 10)= 0

w - 10 = 0       {Ignore w + 14, as measurements will not be -ve}

w = 10 m

l = 2*10 +8

= 20 +8

l  = 28 m

Your dad is designing a new garden for your backyard. He has 20 feet of fencing to go around the garden. He wants the length of
Komok [63]

Answer:

Length = 6.25 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Your dad is designing a new garden for your backyard. He has 20 feet of fencing to go around the garden.

Let the width is x.

Length is 2 1/2 feet longer than the width i.e. (x+2 1/2) = (x+2.5) feet

Perimeter = 20 feet

2(l+b) = 20

(l+b) = 10

(x+2.5+x) = 10

2x+2.5 = 10

2x = 7.5

x = 3.75 feet

Length = (x+2.5)

= (3.75+2.5)

= 6.25 feet

So, the length of the garden is 6.25 feet.

Find the gradient of the line<br> 2y - 8x = -2
natima [27]

answer:

gradient is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

gradient is another way of saying slope

slope in the math is often used to show the speed of something

it's the m in y= mx+b

make the equation look like

y = mx + b

2y - 8x = -2

2y = 8x - 2

y= (8x-2)/2

y=4x-1

gradient is the number next to x

answer : gradient is 4
