Answer:
21.8
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A 50% increase followed by a 33/1/3% decrease. = ? (1 + 0.5)*(1 - 0.3333333) = 1.5 * 0.666667 = 1. Result is same as original.
Answer:
22) 119
24) 15
Step-by-step explanation:
22) 61 + b = 180 <-- supplementary because on the same line
b = 119 <-- subtracted 61 from both sides
24) 87 + (6x + 3) = 180 <-- supplementary because on the same line
87 + 6x + 3 = 180 <-- take out parantheses
90 + 6x = 180 <-- add like terms
6x = 90 <-- subtracted 90 from both sides
x = 15 <-- solve for x by dividing 6 from both sides
Answer:
Width = 7 cm
Length = 15 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let width = w
Length = w + 8
Area of rectangle = 105 sq. cm
length * breadth = 105
(w + 8)*w = 105
Use distributive property
w² + 8w = 105
w² + 8w - 105 = 0
Sum = 8
Product = -105
Factors = 15 , -7 {15 +(-7) = 8 & 15*(-7) = -105}
w² - 7m + 15m - 105 = 0
w(w - 7) + 15(m - 7) = 0
(w - 7)(w + 15) = 0
Ignore w + 15= 0 as measurements will not be in negative value
w - 7 = 0
w = 7
Width = 7 cm
Length = 7 + 8 = 15 cm
