<span>Let the width of the rectangular plot of land be 'x' yards.
Given that the length of the rectangular plot of land is 10 yards more than its width.
So, width of the rectangular plot of land = (x + 10) yards.
Also given that the area of the rectangular plot of land is 600 square yards.
We know that, area of a rectangle = length * width
That is, (x+10) * x = 600
x^2 + 10x = 600
x^2 + 10x - 600 = 0
x^2 + 30x - 20x -600 = 0
x(x + 30) - 20(x + 30) = 0
(x +30)(x -20) =0
Therefore, either (x + 30) = 0 or (x - 20) = 0
If x + 30 = 0, then x = -30 and
If x - 20 = 0, then x = 20
Since 'x' represents the width of a rectangular plot of land it cannot be negative.
Therefore,
width of the rectangular plot of land = 20 yards
length of the rectangular plot of land= x + 10 = 30 yards</span>
Jane: Think: the hypotenuse of her ramp is 14 inches and the angle opposite the rise is 30 degrees. Thus, cos 30 deg = (adj side) / (hyp) = (adj side) / (14 in).
Solving for (adj side), we get (adj side) = (14 in)(sqrt(3)/2) = 7 sqrt(3) inches.
