Answer:

width: (x+4) ft, length: (x+5) ft

Step-by-step explanation:

If the area was x2 + 9x + 20, and the length was (x+5), we find the width dividing the first polynomial by the second (or find what polynomial, multiplied by the second, will give us the first). We can see that the last value of the first polynomial is 20, and the last of the second is 5, so dividing these two values will give us the last value of the width polynomial, so we have that the width before construction is (x+4) ft.

Answer:

The dimension of the rectangular closet before construction =   (x + 5) ft by (x +  4) ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The homeowner has a rectangular closet and the area of the closet is (x² + 9x + 20) ft². The area of a rectangle is the length multiplied by the width.  The length is given as (x + 5) ft. After construction the area change to (x² + 14x + 48) ft². The length became (x + 6) ft.

The dimensions before construction can be calculated as follows:

Mathematically,

area of rectangle = Length × width

area = (x² + 9x + 20) ft².

Length =  (x + 5) ft

Width = unknown

area = LW

(x² + 9x + 20)  =  (x + 5) W

W = (x² + 9x + 20) / x + 5

W = (x +  4) ft

The dimension of the rectangular closet before construction =   (x + 5) ft by (x +  4) ft

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

One property of a parallelogram is that diagonals bisect each other. This means that it "divides" each other in to two equal parts.

Since FK is 6, that means that KH is also 6.

Then you have to add both of those because FK and KH both make up the diagonal FH, FH is 12.

If x+y=10 and x-y=6 what is this value of x cube - y cube​
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

x cubed minus y cubed is equal to 504

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to know what the values of x and y are.  We can do this pretty easily, by just solving both equations for x, and equating them to each other:

With the first:

x + y = 10

x = 10 - y

And with the other

x - y = 6

x = 6 + y

Now that we have two definitions of x, we can say that the expressions are equal, and solve for y:

10 - y = 6 + y

10 - 6 = y + y

4 = 2y

y = 2

And now that we know what y is, we can find x:

x = 10 - y

x = 10 - 2

x = 8

So x is equal to eight.  We can check our answer by plugging x into the other equation and seeing if we get the same value for y:

x - y = 6

8 - y = 6

-y = 6 - 8

-y = -2

y = 2

So we know we solved that correctly.

Now if we cube each number, eight cubed is equal to 512, and 2 cubed is equal to 8.  If we subtract the latter from the former we get 504.

so x cubed minus y cubed is equal to 504
