Mathematics

Answer:

Assuming the length to be x and the width to be y.

Since the area is 64cm, hence

x*y = 64 (equation 1)

Since the perimeter is 40cm, hence

x + x + y + y = 40

2x + 2y = 40

2(x + y) = 2(20)

x + y = 20 (equation 2)

Hence by using simultaneous equation,

x = 20 - y (equation 3)

Substituting equation 3 into equation 1, we get

(20-y)*y=64

20y-y^2=64

Tidying up the equation,

y^2 - 20y + 64 = 0

By using factorisation,

(y-16)(y-4)=0

y=16 or y=4

By substituting y=16 into equation 1,

x*16=64

x = 4

By substituting y = 4 into equation 1,

x*4=64

x=16

Therefore,

The length is 4 cm while the width is 16 cm.

OR

The length is 16 cm while the width is 4cm.

Hope this helps!!

I need help guys. please help me idk it

Solving inequalities is almost the same as solving equalities for basic cases. Only thing you've to watch out for is signs.
For example, in 2x + 3 > 5,
We may subtract 3 from both sides,
2x > 2
Hence, by dividing both sides by 2, we get x>1.

The inequality sign changes on multiplying with (-)
For example, 2 < 6
But, -2 > -6

And when you interchange a fraction
E.g. 3/4 > 2/3
But, 4/3 < 3/2

You can now solve these of your own
