FORMULA: AREA = LENGTH X WIDTH
with this we can proceed so the area is 20
the length is 40 inches and
answer is : width ----18.94---
Answer: -1
Step-by-step explanation:
x is the slope and the value of x is negative one.
4/5
2(5x+4)=
distribute the 2
10x+8=
subtract 8 from both sides
10x=8
divide 10 from both sides
x=8/10
simplify by 2
x= 4/5
let length = x
width is 7 feet less than length
width = x-7
area = length *width
area = x(x-7)
170=x²-7x
x²-7x-170=0
x²-17x+10x-170=0
x(x-17)+10(x-17)=0
(x-17)(x+10)=0
x=17 or x=-10
since length cannot be negative so x=17
and width =x-7 =17-7=10
length =17 feet and width =10 feet
