3. The ratio of the width to the length of a rectangle is 4:5. If the area of the rectangle is 500 square centimeters, what is the length of the rectangle? 5 centimeters
9 centimeters
20 centimeters
25 centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio 4:5 means:

width: W = 4x

length: L = 5x

Area of rectangle:  A = W×L

Therefore:

              500 = 4x×5x

               500 = 20x²

               50 = 2x²

                x² = 25

                x = 5

W = 4×5 = 20 cm

L = 5×5 = 25 cm

step-by-step explanation:

i believe its "c" because all of the other options include a but it could be d because there is a way of financing with cash at certain places but its uncommon.
