The length and width of the rectangle are 19 inches and 13 inches respectively.

<u>Solution:</u>

Given that , A rectangular sheet of metal has an area of 247 square inches. Its perimeter is 64 inches.

Let the length of rectangle be a and width of rectangle be b.  

<em><u>The area of rectangle is given as: </u></em>

area = length \times width

\text { Then, area } \rightarrow a b=247

<em><u>The perimeter of rectangle is given as:</u></em>

Perimeter = 2(length + width)

Then 2(a + b) = 64

a + b = 32 ⇒ (1)

\begin{array}{l}{\text { Now we know that, }(a-b)^{2}=(a+b)^{2}-4 a b} \\\\ {\text { Then, }(a-b)^{2}=32^{2}-4 \times 247} \\\\ {(a-b)^{2}=1024-988} \\\\ {a-b=\sqrt{36}}\end{array}

a – b = 6 ---- (2)

Now solve (1) and (2)

2a = 38

a = 19

Then, 19 + b = 32  

b = 32 – 19 = 13  

hence, the length and width of the rectangle are 19 inches and 13 inches respectively.

Answer:

The values of 'x' are -1.2, 0, 0, -4i or 4i.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The equation to solve is given as:

5x^5+6x^4+80x^3+96x^2=0

Factoring x^2 from all the terms, we get:

x^2(5x^3+6x^2+80x+96)=0

Now, rearranging the terms, we get:

x^2(5x^3+80x+6x^2+96)=0

Now, factoring 5x from the first two terms and 6 from the last two terms, we get:

x^2(5x(x^2+16)+6(x^2+16))=0\\x^2(x^2+16)(5x+6)=0

Now, equating each factor to 0 and solving for 'x', we get:

x^2=0\\x=0\ and\ 0\\\\5x+6=0\\x=\frac{-6}{5}=1.2\\\\x^2+16=0\\x^2=-16\\x=\sqrt{-16}=\pm 4i

There are 3 real values and 2 imaginary values. The value of 'x' as 0 is repeated twice.

Therefore, the values of 'x' are -1.2, 0, 0, -4i or 4i.
