The width of a rectangle is 8 inches. The length is 4 times its width. What is the area of the rectangle?

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a Rectangle

A rectangle is a four-sided polygon with four internal right angles. The sides are called width (w) and length (h). Two important measures about the rectangle are the area (A) and the perimeter (P):

P=Sum of the four sides

We know the length is 4 times the width and the width is 8 inches, thus

Thus, the area of the rectangle is

tickets for the harlem globetrotters

show at michigan state university in

2010 cost $16, $23, or, for vip seats, $40.

total revenue = 16x + 23y + 40z

if 9 times as many $16 tickets were sold

as vip tickets,

x = 9z => x – 9z = 0, if 9 times as many $16 tickets were sold

as vip tickets,

x = 9z => x – 9z = 0, sales of all three kinds of tickets would

total $46,575.

16x + 23y + 40z = 46575, how many of each kind of ticket would

have been sold?

solve for x, y and z

x − 9z = 0

x − y − z = 55

16x + 23y + 40z = 46575

x = 1170

y = 985

z = 130
