A rectangle has a area of 45 square units.The length is 4 units less than the width.What are the dimensions of the rectangle

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: A = lw 

A= 45 unit²

l= w-4

45= (w-4)w

45=w²-4w

w²-4w-45=0

(w-9)(w+5)=0

w=9, -5 so 9 is the width

l=9-4 =5 is the length

1.75 = 12.3 - x / 2.8

Solve for x

Answers

1.75=12.3-x/2.8
x=(12.3-1.75)2.8
x=29.54
1.75 = 12.3 - x / 2.81.75-12.3=-x/2.8

-10.55=-x/2.8

-10,55*-2.8=x

x=29.54

To my knowledge, the answer should be there is no difference since I found the sum, however the answer is something else, could someone please explain

Answers

In the first series, the summation applies to the whole (2n+3) inside
the parentheses, so the 3 gets summed up 5 times.

But in the second one, the summation only applies to the 2n , so
the 3 is only added after the summation is finished.

The difference between five 3s the first time and one 3 the second time
is your 12 .
The difference between them is 12 because :
the sum of first series is : 2 * ( 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5  ) + 15;
the sum of the second series is : 2 * ( 1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 ) + 3.

Use the quadratic formula to solve x^2 + 9x + 10 = 0. Estimate irrational solutions to the nearest tenth. A {–3.6, 16.4}
B {–7.7, –1.3}
C {–25, 16}
D {–15.4, –2.6}

Answers

Basically, just plus your numbers into quadratic formula. A= 1, B= 9, C= 10.
The answer you will get is B.
x^(2) + 9x + 10 = 0 \nx = \frac{-(9) +/- \sqrt{(9)^(2) - 4(1)(10)}}{2(1)} \nx = (-9 +/- √(81 - 40))/(2) \nx = (-9 +/- √(41))/(2) \nx = (-9 +/- 6.4)/(2) \nx = (-9 + 6.4)/(2) \nx = (-2.6)/(2) \nx = -1.3 \n \nx = (-9 - 6.4)/(2) \nx = (-15.4)/(2) \nx = -7.7

It is equal to B.
