The length of a rectangular photo is 1 centimeter less than three times its width. If the area of the photo is 102 square centimeters, find the length and width of the

photo.

The length is

and the width is

(Type whole numbers.)

Answers

Answer 1

Answers:

Length = 17Width = 6

======================================================

How to get those answers:

Let w be the unknown width in centimeters. This variable is some positive real number. This means w > 0 which will be useful later.

The length is "1 cm less than 3 times its width" and it tells us the length is defined by the expression 3w-1. Whatever w is, we triple it to get 3w and then subtract 1 to get the final length.

Multiply the length and width to get the area 102

length*width = area

(3w-1)*w = 102

3w^2-w = 102

3w^2-w-102 = 0

We could guess and check our way to factoring this, but that's not very efficient. The quadratic formula is the better option. It may seem a bit messy, but it's a more direct path that doesn't involve guessing.

[tex]w = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\w = \frac{-(-1)\pm\sqrt{(-1)^2-4(3)(-102)}}{2(3)}\\\\w = \frac{1\pm\sqrt{1225}}{6}\\\\w = \frac{1\pm35}{6}\\\\w = \frac{1+35}{6}\ \text{ or } \ w = \frac{1-35}{6}\\\\w = \frac{36}{6}\ \text{ or } \ w = \frac{-34}{6}\\\\w = 6\ \text{ or } \ w \approx -5.667\\\\[/tex]

We ignore the second solution (w = -5.667 approximately) because we stated earlier that w > 0. In other words, a negative length does not make sense, so that's why we ignore it.

-----------------

If w = 6 cm is the width, then 3w-1 = 3*6-1 = 18-1 = 17 cm is the length.

Note that length*width = 17*6 = 102 which is the proper area we want. This confirms the answers.

The cost of a cycle is $ 950 and that of a scooter is $ 23,500. He sold them together for $ 25,000. Find his profit. ​

Answers

actual cost is 950+23,500=24450

he sold them for 25000 so his profit is 25000-950-23500=550

Answer:

A cycle + A scooter

= 950 + 23,500

= 24,450

Profit = Sold - cost

= 25,000 - 24,450

= 550

So the profit is $550

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a rectangle is

A = l* w where l is the length and w is the width

A = 5(5+2y)

Distribute

A = 25+10y

Area of rectangle = Length * Width

Length is 5

Width is 5 + 2y

⇛Area = 5(5+2y)

⇛Area = 25 + 10y

y = -2(-3) +1 = 6+1 =7

x = 0

y = -2(0) +1 = 0+1 =1

x = 3

y = -2(3) +1 = -6+1 =-5

The range is the y values

We put then in order from smallest to largest

a)

X + Y = 5

2X - Y = 9      

X + 2X + Y - Y = 5 + 9

3X = 14

X = 14/3

Para Y, basta substituir o valor de X em qualquer uma das 2 equacoes - arbitrariamente. Escolhendo a primeira:

X+ Y = 5

14/3 + Y = 5

Y = 5 - 14/3

Y = 1/3

b)

3X - Y = 10

X + Y = 18        

3X + X - Y + Y = 10 + 18

4X = 28

X = 7

Para Y, basta substituir o valor de X em qualquer uma das 2 equacoes - arbitrariamente. Escolhendo a segunda:

X + Y = 18

7 + Y = 18

Y = 18 - 7

Y = 11

If (8z − 9)(8z + 9) = az2 − b, what is the value of a?

Answers

Explanation:

We use the difference of squares rule to say

So in this particular case,

(8z-9)(8z+9) = (8z)^2-(9)^2 = 64z^2 - 81

We can see that the 64 matches with the 'a' of the expression az^2-81, which must mean a = 64
