the legnth of rectangular sheet decreases by 34.5 cm its width decreases proportionally that is by the same percentage. if the sheets original width was half of the legnth and the new (smaller) area was 1.2 m^2 what was original sheet's width

The original width was 94.71 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

new smaller area = 1.2m^2

Decrease in length of the rectangular sheet = 34.5cm

Therefore:

1. the final width of the sheet is given as

2X^2 = 1.2 m^2

X^2 - 0.6 m^2

X^2 = 10000 * 0.6 cm

X = 77.46 cm (this is the width)

2. The length of the sheet

= 2 * 77.46

= 154.92 cm.

3. Initial length of the sheet

= 154.92 + 34.5

= 189.42 cm.

4. Initial width of the sheet ( original ).

= 189.42 / 2

= 94.71 cm.

5. Initial area of the sheet

= 94.71 * 189.92

= 17939.9 cm^2

New area of the sheet

= 79.46 * 154.92

= 12000.1 cm^2

Difference between the initial and new area

= 17939.9 - 12000.1

= 5939.86 cm^2

Percentage of area decrease

= 5939.86 ' 17939.9

= 33.1%
