Answer:
a) w(4w-15)
b) w²
c) w(4w -15) = w²
d) w = 5
e) 5 by 5
Step-by-step explanation:
a) If w is the width, and the length is 15 less than 4 times the width, then the length is 4w-15. The area is the product of length and width.
A = w(4w -15)
__
b) If w is the side length, the area of the square is (also) the product of length and width:
A = w²
__
c) Equating the expressions for area, we have ...
w(4w -15) = w²
__
d) we can subtract the right side to get ...
4w² -15w -w² = 0
3w(w -5) = 0
This has solutions w=0 and w=5. Only the positive solution is sensible in this problem.
The side length of the square is 5 units.
__
e) The rectangle is 5 units wide, and 4(5)-15 = 5 units long.
The rectangle and square have the same width and the same area, so the rectangle must be a square.
7 5/12 or 7.41
17 1/21 or 17.04
Answer:
e total number of minutes, m.
Step-by-step explanation:
The dependent variable is the variable in which the variable cannot stand by itself.
In this situation, the total number of minutes, m, equal 20 times the number of d.
m = 20d
d, is a variable which can be multiplied which states that it has a value, no matter what. On the other hand, m, requires d, to be there in order to have a value.
The answer is, m, the total number of minutes.

Answer:
$1.65
Step-by-step explanation:
If h is the price of a hot dog, then the total bill was ...
4(2h +1.25) = 18.20
2h +1.25 = 4.55 . . . . . . divide by 4
2h = 3.30 . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 1.25
h = 1.65 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2
The price of one hot dog was $1.65.
