Answer:
L = (x - 2) meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the rectangle = (x² - 7x + 10) m²
The width = (x - 5) m
length = ?
Area of a rectangle = length × width
x² - 7x + 10 = L(x -5)
note L = length
divide both sides by (x-5)
(x² - 7x + 10)/(x - 5) = L
L = x² - 7x + 10 / (x -5)
Factorize x² - 7x + 10
find the numbers you can multiply to give you 10 and also add to give you -7
The numbers are -2 and -5. Therefore,
x² - 2x - 5x + 10 = 0
x(x - 2) - 5(x - 2) = 0
(x-5)(x-2) = 0
Let us go back to our division
L = x² - 7x + 10 / (x -5)
x² - 7x + 10 = (x-5)(x-2)
L = (x-5)(x-2) / (x -5)
L = (x - 2) meters

not sure if im right but this is my problem
3b=7
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
option B : 12 degree
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of angles in a triangle = 180 degree
Small box represents 90 degree
From the inner triangle
90 + angle y + 29 = 180 degree
90 + y + 29 = 180
119 + y = 180 (subtract 119 on both sides)
y= 61 degree
(y+x) is the top angle for bigger triangle
From the outer triangle , 90 + (y+x) + 17 = 180
We know y = 61
90 + (61+x) + 17 = 180
90 + 61 + x 17 = 180
168 +x = 180(subtract 168 on both sides)
x= 12 degrees
