If the length of a rectangle is 3m longer than its width, then:
L=W+3
Is the area really 154^2? Or is it 154m^2? If yes, then:
A=LW
154=(W+3)(W)
154=(W^2+3W)
0=W^2+3W-154
0=(W-11)(W+14)
This means either (W-11) or (W+14) is equal to zero so:
W=11 and W=-14
To find out let's substitute the numbers:
154=(11+3)(11)
154=154
Therefore, the width of the rectangle is 11m
Answer:
740
Step-by-step explanation:
The n th term of an arithmetic series is
= a₁ + (n - 1)d
where a₁ is the first term and d the common difference
Given a₃ = 7 and a₇ = (3 × 7) + 2 = 21 + 2 = 23 , then
a₁ + 2d = 7 → (1)
a₁ + 6d = 23 → (2)
Subtract (1) from (2) term by term
4d = 16 ( divide both sides by 4 )
d = 4
Substitute d = 4 into (1)
a₁ + 2(4) = 7
a₁ + 8 = 7 ( subtract 8 from both sides )
a₁ = - 1
The sum to n terms of an arithmetic series is
= [ 2a₁ + (n - 1)d ] , thus
= [ (2 × - 1) + (19 × 4) ]
= 10(- 2 + 76) = 10 × 74 = 740
