Let breadth be x

  • Length=2x-2

We know

\boxed{\sf Area=Length\times Breadth}

\\ \sf\longmapsto 112=x(2x-2)

\\ \sf\longmapsto 2x^2-2x-112=0

\\ \sf\longmapsto x=-7\:or\:x=8

  • Ignore negative value

Now

\\ \sf\longmapsto Length=2x-2=2(8)-2=16-2=14

\\ \sf\longmapsto Breadth=8

Can someone please help me?
Ede4ka [16]

Ok so their are 36 people that didn't need gel for there hair. so when you multiply 36 x 5 (because each cut costs 5 bucks) you get an answer of 180. so hold on to that and since their are 16 people that asked for gel you would need to first multiply 5 and 10% which gives you 0.5 so when you multiply 5.5 (because when you multiplied the 10% with the 5 you should get .5) times 16 you should get an answer of 88. when you add 180 with 88 you get an answer of 268. Ur welcome couuld u mark this brainlist plzzzzz

What is the product of [x-(4+13i)][x-(4+13i)]
Luden [163]

Answer:

x^2 - (4+13i)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

This product has the form (a-b)(a+b), which is a 'special product' equal to a^2 - b^2.  Following this pattern, [x-(4+13i)][x-(4+13i)] = x^2 - (4+13i)^2.  The 2nd term could be expanded if desired, but the above result is the most compact one possible.

Help please, show steps<br>3n/7-1=1/8
goldfiish [28.3K]

Given:

\frac{3n}{7}-1=\frac{1}{8}

First, let's move the -1 to the right side. When we add 1 + \frac{1}{8}, we get \frac{9}{8}.

\frac{3n}{7}=\frac{9}{8}

Now we can cross multiply, multiply (3n)(8) and (7)(9)

(3n)(8)=(7)(9)

Simplify the left side.

24n = (7)(9)

Simplify the right side.

24n=63

Divide both sides by 24 to isolate n.

\frac{24n}{24}=\frac{63}{24}

Simplify.

n=\frac{21}{8}
