Width = w
Length = w + 1
Area = 30
w(w+1) = 30
w² + w = 30
w² + w - 30 = 0
w² + 6w - 5w - 30 = 0
w(w + 6) -5(w + 6) = 0
(w + 6)(w - 5) = 0
w = 5 or -6
Since the width cannot be negative, the width is 5 units.
Hence, the width is 5 units and the length is 6 units.
Answer:
A) or B)
Step-by-step explanation:
Im not really sure but its one of them
Let Ted be x.
Ed is 7 years older = x + 7
Ed = (3/4)Ted
(x + 7) = (3/4)x
x + 7 = 3x/4
x - 3x/4 = -7
x/4 = -7
x = -28, Ted = -28 years.
(x + 7) = -28 + 7 = -21, Ed = -21 years
Goodness. We had negative numbers for the ages, well does that make sense? No it doesn't.
Our answer is correct. But the sense in the question is lacking. The question has been wrongly set.
<span>We might assume negative ages to mean before they came into the world, before birth! </span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x - y = 34
x + y = 212
-------------------add
2x = 246
x = 246/2
x = 123 <=== 123 domestic
x + y = 212
123 + y = 212
y = 212 - 123
y = 89 <===== 89 foreign
