Kelly wants to create a rectangular playpen for his cats in his backyard, and estimates that the cats will need 500 square feet. he also wants the length of the playpen to be 20 feet longer than the width, so they have room to run. what dimensions should the playpen be?

 Option C is correct.        

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Kelly  wants to create  a rectangular playpen for his cats backyard

And cats need 500 square feet

And length of playpen to be 20 feet longer than the width.

Let the width of playpen be x.

Then the length of playpen be (x+20).

Then the equation becomes:

x(x+20) =500

We will solve above for x.

Using discriminant

Now, we will use formula for x which is:

Taking 2 as common factor from numerator and denominator.

Or

Option c is correct.

(d)

step-by-step explanation:

given: the line in the graph passes through points (5,30) and (6,26).

then, the equation of line is:

now, put y=a(n) and x=n,

hence, option d is correct.

y=3n + 1

step-by-step explanation:

this is wrong because it says the second number is one less and i added one instead
