Assuming the shape of the room is a rectangle :

Area = Width x Length.

Let's call width "w" and length "l" . Now if, the width is 4/5 of the length that means 4/5 times length gives us the width, like this :

w=\frac { 4 }{ 5 } \cdot l

As given in the question, area of the rectangle is 320 square feet. And as I said before area of a rectangle can be found by multiplying its length and width. 

w.l=320

w=\frac { 4 }{ 5 } \cdot l , we can plug w's value in the previous equation to find "l". 

\frac { 4 }{ 5 } \cdot l\cdot l=320\\ \\ \frac { 4 }{ 5 } \cdot { l }^{ 2 }=320\\ \\ { l }^{ 2 }=320\cdot \frac { 5 }{ 4 } \\ \\ { l }^{ 2 }=\frac { 320\cdot 5 }{ 4 } \\ \\ { l }^{ 2 }=\frac { 1600 }{ 4 } \\ \\ { l }^{ 2 }=400\\ \\ \sqrt { { l }^{ 2 } } =\sqrt { 400 } \\ \\ l=20

Let's plug "l"s value in the equation.

w.l=320\quad \Longrightarrow \quad w\cdot 20=320\quad \Longrightarrow \quad w=\frac { 320 }{ 20 } \quad \Longrightarrow \quad w=16

The length is 20 feet and the width is 16 feet.

Area equals to length times width
The length is 20 and the width is 16

Alchen [17]

The result is x^2 +x +4 -21/(x+3).

Polynomial long division tends to be easier than numerical long division because the quotient term never needs adjustment. It is always the ratio of the highest degree terms of the dividend and divisor.

Which function has a domain of all real numbers except x=pi/2+-npi?
OLga [1]
It is rather obvious that we will have to deal with a trigonometric function. Let us see... the first hint is that a function is not defined somewhere. cos and sin are defined for all real numbers... what about tan though? Well, as we approach pi/2, tan becomes larger and larger and it is not defined at pi/2. Given that the tan function has a period of pi (cos and sin have a period of 2pi), this function is the right candidate. Since it is periodic and it is not defined at pi/2, it cannot be defined at any x=pi/2+-npi (if it was defined for some n, then it would have the same value at pi/2 due to periodicity). Hence, a function that works is tanx, or 2*tanx or tanx+6.

Let f be a function such that f(x)=2x-4 is defined on the domain.2 is less than or equal to x and x is lss than or equal to 6. T
STALIN [3.7K]
F(x) = 2x - 4
f(2 ≤ x) = 2(2 ≤ x) - 4
f(x ≥ 2) = 2(x ≥ 2) - 4
f(x ≥ 2) = 2(x) ≥ 2(2) - 4
f(x ≥ 2) = 2x ≥ 4 - 4
f(x ≥ 2) = 2x ≥ 0
f(x ≥ 2) = x ≥ 0

f(x) = 2x - 4
f(x ≤ 6) = 2(x ≤ 6) - 4
f(x ≤ 6) = 2(x) ≤ 2(6) - 4
f(x ≤ 6) = 2x ≤ 12 - 4
f(x ≤ 6) = 2x ≤ 8
f(x ≤ 6) = x ≤ 4
