Let width of rectangle be "x"
L= 3x W=x
if width is diminished by 1 that means new width = (x-1)
similarly the new length would be (3x+3)
hence (x-1)*(3x+3)=72
(3x^2)-3=72
3x^2=75
x^2=25
x= +/- 5
reject -5 as you cant have negative length
hence x=5
so original dimensions of rectangle is
L= 15m W=5m
Answer:
780 calories
Step-by-step explanation:
Robert ate a carton of yogurt = 260 calories
he ate a sandwich = 425 calories
And he also ate an orange = 95 calories
Altogether he consumed = 260 + 425 + 95
= 780 calories.
pls mark me brainliest that would be a really great help. Thanks...
The linear equation that best fits the data is: y = 10x + 15.
<h3>How to Write the Linear Equation of a Data?</h3>
First, find the slope/unit rate (m) and the y-intercept/starting value, then substitute the values into y = mx + b.
Using two points on the graph, (1, 25) and (2, 35), find the slope (m):
Slope (m) = (35 - 25)/(2 - 1)
Slope (m) = 10/1
Slope (m) = 10
Substitute (x, y) = (1, 25) and m = 10 into y = mx + b to find b
25 = 10(1) + b
25 - 10 = b
b = 15
Substitute m = 10 and b = 15 into y = mx + b
y = 10x + 15
