Let us set up some variables:

  • L: Length
  • W: Width

Now let us set up some equations based on the facts:

  • length of rectangle is 4 times its width --> L = 4W
  • perimeter of rectangle is 80 --> 2L + 2W = 80

Equations:

   L = 4W     -- equation 1

   2L + 2W = 80 -- equation 2

   Plug the value of L from equation 1 into equation 2

    2(4W) + 2W = 80

     8W + 2W = 80

        10W = 80

           W = 8 -- equation 3

   

   Plug the value of W from equation 3 into equation 1:

    L = 4W = 4 * 8 = 32

Therefore the length is 32 and the width is 8.

Hope that helps!

A gardener is planting two types of trees:
lara [203]

It will take exactly 4 years for these trees to be the same height

Step-by-step explanation:

A gardener is planting two types of trees:

  • Type A is 3 feet tall and grows at a rate of 7 inches per year
  • Type B is 5 feet tall and grows at a rate of 1 inches per year

We need to find in how many years it will take for these trees to be the

same height

Assume that it will take x years for these trees to be the same height

The height of a tree = initial height + rate of grow × number of years

Type A:

∵ The initial height = 3 feet

∵ 1 foot = 12 inches

∴ The initial height = 3 × 12 = 36 inches

∵ The rate of grows = 7 inches per year

∵ The number of year = x

∴ h_{A} = 36 + (7) x

∴ h_{A} = 36 + 7 x

Type B:

∵ The initial height = 5 feet

∴ The initial height = 5 × 12 = 60 inches

∵ The rate of grows = 1 inches per year

∵ The number of year = x

∴ h_{B} = 60 + (1) x

∴ h_{B} = 60 + x

Equate h_{A} and h_{B}

∴ 36 + 7 x = 60 + x

- Subtract x from both sides

∴ 36 + 6 x = 60

- Subtract 36 from both sides

∴ 6 x = 24

- Divide both sides by 6

∴ x = 4

∴ The two trees will be in the same height in 4 years

It will take exactly 4 years for these trees to be the same height
