Width = w
length = 2w + 11
area = length * width = (2w+11)*w = 63
w = 3 gives area = 3*17 = 51. w=4 gives area = 4 * 19 = 96. So w is somewhere between 3 and 4.
2w^2 + 11w - 63 = 0
That's a quadratic equation. We can test and find out if it's easily solved by factoring. Otherwise the quadratic formula can solve it.

(2w - a)(w + b) = 0
a*b = 63
2b - a = 11
(or, a - 2b = 11)

Let's factor 63.
63 = 3*21 = 3*3*7
1 and 63 (that doesn't work).
7 and 9: 14-9=5 nope, 18-7=11 yes. So b=9, a=7 will work.

(2w - a)(w + b) = 0 becomes
(2w - 7)(w + 9) = 0
That means w can be 7/2, or -9. -9 is obviously wrong, so let's check 7/2. The area of the rectangle was w*(2w+11) That's 3.5 * (7+11) = 3.5*18 = 63. So the rectangle's width is 3.5, and its length is 18.

the clues that signal the reader should change tone are the punctuation marks, the grammatical signs. for example, the quotation marks at the beginning of something someone else said literally or the exclamation marks.

the tone of the first line of dialogue until "gettysburg" is a kind tone, a tone of advise. the narrator is trying to the other person in doing something he or she obviously is finding hard to do by giving a piece of advise and bringing up a memory of a successful similar case.

the clue that the reader understand how to read the word "bang" is the exclamation mark. it gives the word a surprise tone, a strong accent.

the best tone for reading the word "bang" is an exciting tone, a surprise one, even a loud one.

the words that should be read with a formal tone are the ones that give factual information. the sentence: mister lincoln couldn't think of anything to say at the gettysburg" gives information about an event and it needs to be read formally, also, when the narrator wants to transmit calmness, a formal and slow tone is needed, because people also transmit messages with the vibrations of our voices and tones.

Kevin has a spinner that has 10 equal sections and 2 sections of each color—red, blue, green, yellow, and purple. kevin spins the spinner 180 times. kevin determines about how many times the spinner will land on red or green, and his work is shown below. -kevin has the formula reversed; it should be the total number of sections over the number of red or green sections. -kevin should have used a 4 in the numerator because there are 2 red sections and 2 green sections. -kevin should multiply by the number of sections in the spinner rather than the total number of spins. -kevin calculated the prediction correctly and did not make any mistakes.
