Answer: Width = 3cm
Length = 8cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Length = x+5 cm
Width = xcm
Area = 24cm²
Area of a rectangle = length × width
x × (x + 5) = 24
x² + 5x = 24
x² + 5x - 24 = 0
x² + 8x - 3x - 24 = 0
x(x + 8) - 3(x + 8) = 0
x - 3 = 0
x = 3
Width = 3cm
Since length = x + 5 = 3 + 5 = 8cm
Length = 8cm
4260 is the answer
i dont know what you mean by simplified
Answer:
See below.
Step-by-step explanation:
There is an infinite n umber of systems of equations that has (1, 4) as its solution. Are you given choices? Try x = 1 and y = 4 in each equation of the choices. The set of two equations that are true when those values of x and y are used is the answer.
Make variables for each
L = library books
P = telephone books
T = text books
so.... L+P = 2T
now we have to fill in numbers
