Answer:

The length of a rectangle is 7 inches longer than it is wide. If the area is 170 square inches, what are the dimensions of the rectangle?

Answer by Cromlix(4381)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

x = width x + 7 = length

x(x+7) = 170

x^2 + 7x - 170 = 0

(x + 17)( x - 10)

Therefore x = 10 as x = -17 no answer.

Width = 10 inches

Length = 17 inches

21 Last year Chelsea and Sonya took 236 pictures during Thanksgiving. This year Chelsea and Sonya each took the same amount of p
Leokris [45]

Let 'c' represent the number of pictures Chelsea took.

Let 's' represent the number of pictures Sonya took.

For last year's Thanksgiving, c + s = 236

For this year's Thanksgiving, let 'x' represent the number of photos taken in total. x = c + s, where c and s are two integers that are the same (c = s).

And we know that for both years, c + s + x = 500.

As we know that c + s is already 236 from last year, we can remove c + s from the equation in bold and replace it with 236 instead.

236 + x = 500.

Now we have to isolate the x term.

x = 500 - 236

x = 264.

We know that x = c + s, where c and s are the same, so we can just use one of the variables and double it (so you either get 2c or 2s - it doesn't matter which one you pick because they're both the same).

2c = 264

c = 132

c = s

s = 132.

Both took 132 pictures this year.
