Answer:
c = 3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
5c+16.5=13.5+10c
Subtract 5c from each side
5c-5c+16.5=13.5+10c-5c
16.5 = 13.5 +5c
Subtract 13.5 from each side
16.5 -13.5 =13.5-13.5 +5c
3 = 5c
Divide by 5
3/5 = 5c/5
3/5 =c
Let b= length and a=width
Area= a*b and the problem said b=2a+3 (the length is 3ft more than double the width)
Replace b into Area formula:
Area= a*(2a+3) and we know that Area=77ft from the problem, so:
77=2a^2+3a now order and equal to zero:
2a^2+3a=77 now solve this with quadratic formula and you will get so values for a: -7ft and 5.5ft as you know the dimensions could not be negative so the correct answer for "a" side is 5.5ft, for getting the b side you haeve to replace a=5.5 into b=2a+3 and you will get b=2*5.5+3= 14ft.
