Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:W = L - 7

WL = 78

(L-7)L = 78

L^2 - 7L - 78 = 0

Factorize: (L-13)(L+6) = 0

L = 13 or -6

A length cannot be negative, so the length must be 13 miles.

The width is 13-7 = 6 miles.

Find the value of x. 3x(5+2)=16
Iteru [2.4K]

Answer:

16/21

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation 3x(5 + 2) = 16.

By order of operations, let's add the two numbers in the parentheses first:

3x(5 + 2) = 16

3x(7) = 16

Now, we must multiply 3x by 7:

3x * 7 = 16

21x = 16

Divide both sides by 21:

x = 16/21

The answer is thus 16/21.
