width = x

length = 2x+8

area = l x w

x(2x+8)=120

2x^2+8x−120=0

x^2+4−60=0

(x+10)(x−6)=0

x=−10 and x=6

width has to be a positive number

Width = 6 inches.

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

1. From the graph of absolute value function:

a. The domain is $x\in (-\infty, \infty)$

b. The range is $y\in [0,\infty)$

c. The graph is increasing for all $x>0$

d. The graph is decreasing for all $x$

2. From the graph of quadratic function:

a. The domain is $x\in (-\infty, \infty)$

b. The range is $y\in (-\infty,0]$

c. The graph is increasing for all $x$

d. The graph is decreasing for all $x>0$

Multiply and simplify if possible. sqrt 5x(sqrt x-5 sqrt 5)

RSB [31]

Making the assumption that your problem looks like this,
$\sqrt{5x}(\sqrt{x}-5\sqrt{5})$

we use the distributive property to multiply:
$\sqrt{5x}\times \sqrt{x}-\sqrt{5x}\times5\sqrt{5}
\\
\\ \sqrt{5x^2} - 5\sqrt{25x}
\\
\\ x\sqrt{5}-25\sqrt{x}$
