Let the width be w, then length = 2w - 1

Area = length times width = w(2w - 1) = 21.

Thus, 2w^2 - w = 21 or 2w^2 - w - 21 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation gives that w = 3.5.

Therefore, width is 3.5 ft and length is 2(3.5) - 1 = 6 ft.

GEOMETRY HELP WILL MARK BRAINLIEST
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

x=8

z = 115

Step-by-step explanation:

65 and 13x - 39 are vertical angles so they are equal

65 = 13x - 39

Add 39 to each side

65+39 = 13x - 39+39

104 = 13x

Divide each side by 13

104/13 = 13x/13

8 =x

65 and z are supplementary angles because they form a straight line.  This means they add to 180

65+z = 180

Subtract 65 from each side

65+z-65 = 180-65

z = 115
