Given :

  • The length of a rectangle is 4m more than the width.
  • The area of the rectangle is 45m²

⠀

To Find :

  • The length and width of the rectangle.

⠀

Solution :

We know that,

\qquad { \pmb{ \bf{Length \times Width = Area_{(rectangle)}}}}\:

So,

Let's assume the length of the rectangle as x and the width will be (x – 4).

⠀

Now, Substituting the given values in the formula :

\qquad \sf \: { \dashrightarrow x  \times  (x - 4) = 45 }

\qquad \sf \: { \dashrightarrow {x}^{2}  - 4x = 45 }

\qquad \sf \: { \dashrightarrow {x}^{2}  - 4x - 45 = 0 }

\qquad \sf \: { \dashrightarrow {x}^{2}    - 9x+ 5 x - 45 = 0 }

\qquad \sf \: { \dashrightarrow x(x - 9) + 5(x - 9) = 0 }

\qquad \sf \: { \dashrightarrow (x  - 9) (x  + 5) = 0 }

\qquad \sf \: { \dashrightarrow x = 9, \: \: x =  - 5}

⠀

Since, The length can't be negative, so the length will be 9 which is positive.

⠀

\qquad { \pmb{ \bf{ Length _{(rectangle)} = 9\:m}}}\:

\qquad { \pmb{ \bf{ Width _{(rectangle)} = 9 - 4=5\: m}}}\:

Complete Question

In the first half of a basketball game, a player scored 9 points on free throws and then scored a number of 2-point shots. In the second half, the player scored the same number of 3-point shots as the number of 2-point shots scored in the first half. Which expression represents the total number of points the player scored in the game?

a) 2x + 3x + 9

b) 2x + 3 + 9

c) 2x + 3x + 9x

d) 2 + 3x + 9

Answer:

a) 2x + 3x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of points shots a player scores = x

In a free throw, the player scored 9 points = 9

The player also scored a number of 2-point shots = 2x

In the second half, the player scored the same number of 3-point shots as the number of 2-point shots scored in the first half = 3x

The expression represents the total number of points the player scored in the game =

2x + 3x + 9

Katherine buys a tv with a normal price of $200 and she has a 25% off coupon. How much money did she save????
andrey2020 [161]

Given:

Normal price of a tv = $200

Coupon = 25% off

To find:

The money saved by Katherine.

Solution:

Katherine buys a tv with a normal price of $200 and she has a 25% off coupon. It means, the money saved by Katherine is 25% of normal price of tv, i.e., $200.

Saving=25\%\text{ of }200

Saving=\dfrac{25}{100}\times 200

Saving=25\times 2

Saving=50

Therefore, the money saved by Katherine is $50.

A jogger goes half a mile north and then turns west. If the jogger finishes 1.3 miles away from the starting point, how far west
Ratling [72]
In order to solve this problem, you must draw a right triangle first to help you visualize the path of the jogger. 
You are given 0.5 miles north (which will be the height of the right triangle), and 1.3 miles (which will be the hypotenuse of the triangle). 
Using Pythagorean Theorem: a²+b²=c², we have:
0.5² + b² = 1.3²
b = 1.3²-0.5²
b = 1.2 miles
