We are interested in the dimensions of a certain rectangle. this rectangle has length twice the side of the square and width thr
Mila [183]
Area of square = s^2
Area of Rectangle = lw
l = 2s

w+3 = s
solve for w, w=s-3
Now we have l and w.
Plug both into area of rectangle formula so: (2s)(s-3)
Since both areas are equal set both equations equal to each other:
(2s)(s-3)=s^2
Now simplify
2s^2-6s=s^2
s^2-6s=0, Solve for s.
Factor polynomial. s(s-6)=0 , s can be equal to 0 or 6. HOWEVER, you cannot have a side length of 0 therefore the side length has to be 6.
Now plug in s for the length formula for the rectangle:
l = 2s so... l = 2(6) so length of rectangle = 12.
Now plug in s for the width formula for the rectangle:
w+3=s so... w+3=6 so width of rectangle = 3.
Now the dimensions of the rectangle are 12 by 3. 12 being length and 3 width.
To CHECK:
Find area of rectangle:
A=lw so A=3 times 12 so A=36
Find area of square:
We know the side is equal to 6 so
A=s^2 so 6^2 = 36
The areas are equal that verifies the answer of 12 by 3.

Part A:it would be 32 dollars because 60 and 30 percent off is 42 dollars subtract 10 is 32

part b: yes it would be different the new total would be 35 because if you subtract 10 first it would be 50 then 30 percent off is 35

1. The sum of the three consecutive members of the geometric sequence is 13. The proportion of the third and the first member is
aev [14]
If a = first term and r = common ratio we have

a + ar + ar^2 = 13   and ar^2 / a = r^2 = 9

so r = 3

and a + 3a + 9a = 13 
so a = 1

so they are  1,3 and 9 

2.
in geometric series we have

4 , 4r ,4r^2 , 60

Arithmetic;
 4,  4r , 4r + d ,  4r + 2d

so we have the system of equations
4r + 2d = 60
4r^2 = 4r + d
From first equation
2r + d = 30 
so d = 30 - 2r 
Substitute for d in second equation:-
4r^2 - 4r - (30-2r) = 0
4r^2 - 2r - 30 =0

2r^2 - r - 15 = 0
(r - 3)(2r + 5) = 0
r  = 3 or -2.5
r must be positive so its = 3
and d = 30 - 2(3) = 24

and the numbers are 4*3 =  12 , 4*3^2 = 36

first 3  are  4 , 12 and 36  ( in geometric)
and last 3 are 12, 36 and 60  ( in arithmetic)

The 2 numbers we ause are 12 and 36.
