I don't know if this is the answer that you are looking for, but would the answer be all solutions?
The area of a rectangle is A=LW, the area of a square is A=S^2.
W=S-2 and L=2S-3
And we are told that the areas of each figure are the same.
S^2=LW, using L and W found above we have:
S^2=(2S-3)(S-2) perform indicated multiplication on right side
S^2=2S^2-4S-3S+6 combine like terms on right side
S^2=2S^2-7S+6 subtract S^2 from both sides
S^2-7S+6=0 factor:
S^2-S-6S+6=0
S(S-1)-6(S-1)=0
(S-6)(S-1)=0, since W=S-2, and W>0, S>2 so:
S=6 is the only valid value for S. Now we can find the dimensions of the rectangle...
W=S-2 and L=2S-3 given that S=6 in
W=4 in and L=9 in
So the width of the rectangle is 4 inches and the length of the rectangle is 9 inches.
Answer:
B.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 5 total 6-packs of cola. 1 is cherry and the other is vanilla. 2 out of 5 are the flavors. This means you have a 2 in 5 chance of getting a cherry or vanilla cola.
Answer:
63
Step-by-step explanation:
9x7=(10x7)-1x(7)
=70-7
=63
2×+y=0,
×-y=6
Add the 1st to the 2nd equation==> 3x +y-y=6+0==> 3x=6 & x=2
Plug 2 into any of the equation & you will get y=-4
