Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The prime cost = 4 times the value of material used

Former Prime cost = 540

Value of material = 540 / 4 = Rs. 135

Since ;

Prime cost = raw material + wages

540 = 135 + wages

Wages = 540 - 135

Wages = 405

Increase in raw material ; 3 : 4

New cost of raw materials = (4/3) * 135 = 180

Decrease in wage ; 4 : 5

New wage = 4/5 * 405 = 324

New prime cost :

180 + 324

= 504

Find the dimensions of a rectangle whose width is 6 miles less than it’s length and whose are is 55 square miles.
SSSSS [86.1K]

area = width * length

or

A = W * L

55 = W * (W+6)

solve for width:

0 = W^2 + 6W - 55

this is a quadratic and has two solutions -11 and 5

a length can only be non-negative so discard -11.

width W = 5 miles

now the length is 5+6 = 11 miles
