The length of a rectangle is 4 meters less than twice the width. if the area of the rectangle is 240 square meters, find the dimensions. how many meters is the length? how many meters is the width?

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L be the length and W be the width.

The length of a rectangle is 4 meters less than twice the width.

That is

            L = 2W - 4

The area of the rectangle is 240 square meters

That is

        L x W = 240

        (2W - 4) x W = 240

         2W² - 4W = 240

         W² - 2W - 120 = 0

          (W -12 ) (W+10) = 0

         W = 12 m or W = -10 m

So width of rectangle is 12 meter

Length = 2 x 12 - 4 = 20 m

Length is 12 meter and width is 20 meter.

  y= -3x is the required function.

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given a table:

x             y

0             0

1             -3

3             -9

-2             6

we can see that the values of y is -3 times the value of x

hence, the function would be: y= -3x.

put the values of x will give the same y as in the table that means function is satisfying the given table.

two data sets with the same median will not have the same varaibility
