Use the information to write the dimensions of each rectangle in terms of w, the width of the 1st one.
1st rectangle;
l = 2w
w = 2
2nd rectangle:
w = w
l = 2w + 4
If the area of the 2nd rectangle is 70 square meters, you will use the area formula to write an equation that you will solve using the factoring.
A = lw
70 = w(2w + 4)
70 = 2w^2 + 4w
0 = 2w^2 + 4w -70
0 = 2 (w^2 +2w - 35)
0 = 2 (w + 7) (w - 5)
To get zero, the width would need to be -7 or 5. Because it is a distance, it has to be 5 meters.
The width of both rectangles is 5 meters.
<span>Easiest way is to flip the divisor and multply.
4/9 divided by 1/3
is the same as 4/9 times 3/1
Should be pretty easy to go the rest of the way yourself.</span>
Answer:
Triangles ABC and DEF have the following characteristics :B and E are right angles A=D, BC=EF which congruence theorem can be used to prove ABC =DEF
Y=2x
..........................................
We have a ratio of 3 hours / 7.5 miles
We want to know how many miles he can walk in 1 hour so, divide both sides by 3 -> 1 hour / 2.5 miles
He is walking at 2.5 mph
