Answer:

w = l + \frac{25 - l^{2}}{l - 5}

(Anyone can correct me if I'm wrong)

Step-by-step explanation:

Before we start the solving, we can make the following statements:

Area = l x w

Area = 5x + 25

therefore,

l x w = 5x + 25

Since the question states that the length is x more than the width, so we can make the following statement:

w = l + x

With this, we can substitute it to the first statement we made, l x w = 5x + 25,

l x (l + x) = 5x + 25

l^{2} + lx = 5x + 25

lx - 5x = 25 - l^{2}

x(l - 5) = 25 - l^{2}

x = \frac{25 - l^{2}}{l - 5}

From this, we can find w by substituting it in the statement we made earlier, w = l + x,

w = l + \frac{25 - l^{2}}{l - 5}

teresa repartee un chocolate entre sus hermanos. ella le dio 1/3 a miguel y 1/4 a diego. que parte de chocolate repartido teresa
jekas [21]

Answer:

Teresa tiene 1 chocolate.

Ella le da 1/3 del chocolate a Miguel, entonces ahora Teresa tendrá un chocolate menos un tercio de chocolate, es decir, ella tiene:

1 - 1/3 = 3/3 - 1/3 = 2/3 de un chocolate.

Ahora le da 1/4 a diego, entonces lo que le sobra va a ser:

2/3 - 1/4

recordar que tenemos que tener el mismo denominador en ambas fracciones, entonces podemos reescribir esto como:

(4/4)*(2/3) - (3/3)*(1/4)

(a cada fracción la multiplico y divido por el denominador de la otra)

8/12 - 3/12 = (8 - 3)/12 = 5/12

Es decir, Teresa finalmente tiene 5/12 del chocolate.

Entonces la parte de chocolate que repartió es lo que le falta, que se obtiene como:

1 - 5/12 = 12/12 - 5/12 = 7/12

Ella repartió 7/12 de su chocolate.

H(1)=-6 h(2)= 20 h(n)= h(n-2)+h(n-1) What is the value of h(3)?
Elina [12.6K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  14

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the formula with n=3.

  h(3) = h(3-2) +h(3-1)

  h(3) = h(1) +h(2)

  h(3) = -6 +20 . . . . . substitute the given values

  h(3) = 14

each time kim pour water from a jug into a glass, exactly 10% of the water remaining in the jug is used. What is the minimum num
Gnoma [55]

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

At least 7 times.

Explanation:

Since 10% of the water in the jug is removed each time, this means that 100-10=90% of the water remains.

After two times, we would have 0.9(0.9) = 0.81 = 81% of the water; each time she pours, the number of times 0.9 is multiplied by itself changes.  This makes this an exponential inequality (it is not an equation, as we want "less than half of the water"):

0.5 < 0.9^x

To solve this, we will use logarithms:

\log_{0.9}(0.5)
