Now the width is w.
It's twice as long as wide, so now the length is 2w.
If the length is increased by 4 cm, the length will be 2w + 4.
The width is decreased by 3 cm, so the width will be w - 3.
The are of the new rectangle is 100 cm^2.
area = length * width
area = (2w + 4)(w - 3)
The area of the new rectangle is 100, so we get
(2w + 4)((w - 3) = 100
2w^2 - 6w + 4w - 12 = 100
2w^2 - 2w - 112 = 0
w^2 - w - 56 = 0
(w - 8)(w + 7) = 0
w - 8 = 0 or w + 7 = 0
w = 8 or w = -7
A width cannot be negative, so discard w = -7.
w = 8
The width is 8 cm.
The length is twice the width, so the length is 16 cm.
Hey there! :)
Answer:
x = 242 mm.
Step-by-step explanation:
Begin by setting up a proportion between the actual college building and the drawing.
Cross multiply:
99 × 22 = 9 × x
2178 = 9x
Divide both sides by 9:
2178/9 = 9x/9
x = 242 mm.
Answer:
-25 ≠ 21
Step-by-step explanation:
it looks like the question is asking you to solve 5x=4y+9 when given the ordered pair (-5,3)
you would substitute -5 for x and 3 for y in the equation
5(-5) = 4(3) + 9
-25 = 12 + 9
-25 = 21
the question is asking you to see if the left side is equal to the right side of the equation
-25 is not equal to 21, therefore (-5,3) is not a solution to the equation
1/2 * 5 = 2.5.
You would need 2.5 boxes to build 5 birdhouses.
Answer:
11 + 5i
Step-by-step explanation:
6 + 5i + 8 + 3i² =
= 6 + 8 + 3(-1) + 5i
= 14 - 3 + 5i
= 11 + 5i
