Answer:

3 ft by 8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given the area as 24 square feet which means that

L×w= 24....eqn(1)

We were given the perimeter as 22 square feet which means that

22= 2(L +w).......eqn(2)

If we divide both cause by 2 in eqn(2) we have

11= L+ w .....eqn(3)

W= 11-L.........eqn(4)

Substitute eqn(4 into eqn(1)

L× (11-L)=24

-L^2 +11L-24=0

If we factorize

(L-8)(L-3)

L=3 or 8

From eqn4)

W=11-L

At L=3

W=11-3=8

Hence, the dimension is 3 ft by 8 ft

1 2/3*J=15 What is J?
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Do you mean:

(1+(2/3))j = 15

((3/3)+(2/3))j = 15

((3+2)/3)j = 15

(5/3)j = 15

j = 15 / (5/3)

j = 15 * (3/5)

j = 9

docker41 [41]

Given :

Mr. Turner employer pays 100% of his medical insurance. He has rent of $800 and $600 for car payment, $100 light bill, and $300 car insurance. His payroll and income taxes are estimated to be $287.

To Find :

What is his necessary monthly salary to have a gross income to meet his total expenses including the payroll and income taxes.

Solution :

Minimum salary to bear all expenses is :

S = Basic expenses + Payroll and taxes

S = $( 800 + 600 + 100 + 300 + 287)

S = $2087.00

Therefore, monthly salary is $2087.00 .

Hence, this is the required solution.
