The area of a rectangular wall of a barn is 42 square feet. its length is 8 feet longer than twice its width. find the length and width of the wall of the barn.

The answer to your question is: length = 14 ft; width = 3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Area = 42 ft²

length = 8 + 2w

w = width = ?

length = ?

Formula

Area = length x width = l x w

Substitution

                     42 = (2w + 8)w

                     42 = 2w² + 8w

                     2w² + 8w - 42 = 0

                                                                  Dividing by 2

                      w² + 4w - 21 = 0                 Factorize

                     (w + 7) (w - 3) = 0

                     w1 = -7                      w2 = 3

     It's not possible to have negative widths

So the answer is w = 3 ft

      length = 2(3) + 8

      length = 6 + 8

      length = 14 ft

75 tickets have been sold so far.

step-by-step explanation:

in this question it is clearly mentioned that 45 children's tickets have been sold and this number is 60% of the total tickets sold.

now let's assume the total number of tickets sold be x.

then 60% of x = 45

⇒

⇒ x(.6) = 45

by dividing with .6 on both the sides of the equation

⇒ x = 75

therefore 75 tickets have been sold so far.
