Answer:

L = 20 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

w = width

L = length

area = 120

W x L = 120

L - 8 = 2W  then L = 2W + 8

substitute for L:

W x (2W + 8) = 120

2W² + 8W -120 = 0

(2W - 12)(W + 10) = 0

2W-12 = 0

2W = 12

W = 6

L = 20

olga_2 [115]

Answer:

$576.80

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Mr. Juárez opened a savings account with an initial deposit of $560 and will not make any additional deposits or withdrawals. The account earns 1% simple interest.

We are asked to find the total amount that Mr. Juárez will have in his account at the end of 3 years.

We will use simple interest formula to solve our given problem.

A=P (1+rt)

A = Final amount after t years,

P = Principal amount,

r = Annual interest rate in decimal form,

t = Time in years.

Let us convert 1% into decimal form,

1%=1/100=0.01

P=$560 and t=3

A=$560 (1+0.01(3))

A=$560 (1+0.03)

A= $560 (1.03)

A= $576.80

Therefore, Mr. Juárez will have $576. 80 in his account at the end of 3 years. Hope this helps!
