Area of a rectangle = length x width
For this postcard:
length = 4 in
width = (3+b) in
area = 24 in^2

Substitute into the area formula:
24 = 4 x (3+b)
24 = 12 + 4b
24 - 12 = 4b
12 = 4b
b = 3 in

Therefore:
the length of the postcard = 4 inch
the width of the postcard = b+3 = 3 + 3 = 6 inch

lawyer [12517]

Answer:

The four odd numbers in sequence are 89, 90, 91, and 93.

Step-by-step explanation:

Designate the four consecutive numbers as x, x+2, x+4, and x+6.

Based on the information given in the question

x + (x + 2) + (x + 4) + (x + 6) = 368

4x + 12 = 368

4x = 356

x = 89

Consequently, the numbers are 89, 90, 91, and 93.

Hope this is helpful:)
