Length: 2w + 59
width: w
diagonal: (2w + 59) + 2 = 2w + 61
Length² + width² = diagonal²
(2w + 59)² + (w)² = (2w + 61)²
(4w² + 118w + 3481) + w² = 4w² + 122w + 3721
5w² + 118w + 3481 = 4w² + 122w + 3721
w² + 118w + 3481 = 122w + 3721
w² - 4w + 3481 = 3721
w² - 4w - 240 = 0
a = 1, b = -4, c = -240

since width cannot be negative, disregard 1 - 2√61
w = 1 + 2√61 ≈ 16.62
Length: 2w + 59 = 2(1 + 2√61) + 59 = 2 + 4√61 + 59 = 61 + 4√61 ≈ 92.24
Answer: width = 16.62 in, length = 92.24 in
Answer:
Length: 21 cm and Width: 6cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 
be the width and 
length of the rectangle. We know:
-------- eq. 1
(Perimeter of the rectangle) ------- eq. 2
Substitute equation 1 in equation 2:
Using the value of y, we find x.
Answer:
1.2 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to divide the dollar count by the pound count.
So basically:
6/5
This gives you 1.2 dollars.
When you do unit rate, you just have to divide one value by the other value.
The value you divide by, and the value you divde, vary depending on what the question asks.
For instance, if this question asked what the pound count for 1 dollar would be, you would end up divide the 5 pounds by 6 dollars(5/6) instead of divideing the 6 dollars by 5 pounds like we did above(6/5).
Hope this helps!
Answer: Option B is the cheaper deal (the 12 batteries for $14.76)
===========================================================
Explanation:
For the first deal we can say
3 batteries = 4.80 dollars
3/3 batteries = 4.80/3 dollars .... divide both sides by 3
1 battery = 1.60 dollars
The unit price for the first deal is $1.60 per battery.
----------------------------------
For the second deal we could say
12 batteries = 14.76 dollars
12/12 batteries = 14.76/12 dollars .... divide both sides by 12
1 battery = 1.23 dollars
The unit price for the first deal is $1.23 per battery.
This is the cheaper deal.
----------------------------------
So in short, you're dividing the total cost over the number of items to get the unit price.
The answer would be 9. 9x3=27 and 9x4=36. Although 3 fits into both, 9 is the BIGGER number that also fits into both of the numbers shown in the problem.
