Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
area = length x breadth
length = 5 inches greater than width = 5+x
width = x
area = (5+x) x
104 = (5+x) x
104 = 5x + x²
x²+5x-104 =0
looking for two numbers that when you multiply gives 104, and adding it gives +5
the numbers is 13 and 8 (-13, +5)
x²+5x-13x-104 =0
x(x+5)-13(x+5) = 0
(x+5)(x-13)=0
x+5 =0 x-13 =0
x = -5, x=13
x= -5, 13
the width is either -5 or 13 inches
the length = (5+x) = (5+(-5)) = 5-5 =0
(5+x) = (5+13) = 5+13 = 18
lenth is 0 or 18 inches
Yes, if 2 circles have the diameter of 5 then there circumference will be 15.7, assuming pi is 3.14
It would take them 8.5 hours.
Explanation:
Since they are painting the room together, they would basically each paint half of the room. So if they were painting half of the room each, it would take them half of the time that it would
normally take each of them. Half of Sally's time is 3.5 hours. And half of John's time is 5 hours. When you add them together, you get 8.5 hours.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
x = all real numbers, infinite solutions
Step-by-step explanation:
4(x-2) + 7 = 4x - 1
Distribute
4x -8+7 = 4x-1
Combine like terms
4x -1 = 4x-1
Subtract 4x from each side
4x-1 -4x = 4x-1-4x
-1 = -1
This is always true so there are infinite solutions for x
Answer:
1/2 or 0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
All possible odd values on a 6-sided die include 1, 3, and 5; that is 3 values out of 6 total values. 3/6 or 1/2 is a 0.5 probability.
