A rectangle has a length of 12 yards less than 3 times its width. If the area of the rectangle is 135 square yards, find the len
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The length is 15 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Represent the width with W and length with L: So

Area = 135yd^2

L=3W - 12

Required

Determine the length of the rectangle:

Area is calculated as thus:

Area = L * W

Substitute 3W - 12 for L and 135 for Area

135= (3W - 12) * W

135= 3W^2 - 12W

Reorder:

3W^2 - 12W - 135= 0

Divide through by 3

W^2 - 4W - 45 = 0

Expand:

W^2  - 9W + 5W - 45 = 0

W(W  - 9) + 5(W - 9) = 0

(W + 5)(W-9) = 0

W + 5 = 0 or W - 9 = 0

W = -5 or W = 9

But width can't be negative

So:

W = 9

Recall that: L=3W - 12

L = 3 * 9 - 12

L = 15

<em>Hence, the length 15 yards</em>

18. You are standing beside the Colorado River, 400 feet
Veseljchak [2.6K]
<h3>Answer: B. 781.6 feet approximately</h3>

=======================================================

Work Shown:

The horizontal portion is 400+166 = 566 feet. Label this as 'a', so a = 566. The vertical side is unknown, so b = x. The hypotenuse is c = 965

Use the pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2

566^2+x^2 = 965^2

x^2 = 965^2 - 566^2

x = sqrt( 965^2 - 566^2 )

x = 781.58108984289 which is approximate

x = 781.6 feet when rounding to one decimal place
