hope this helps.........
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
x less-than 3
Answer:
See below ~
Step-by-step explanation:
The length and width are <u>x + 6</u> and <u>x</u> respectively.
Equating to the area :
- Area = length × width
- 112 = (x +6)(x)
- 112 = x² + 6x
- x² + 6x - 112 = 0
- x² + 14x - 8x - 112 = 0
- x(x + 14) - 8(x + 14) = 0
- (x - 8)(x + 14) = 0
- x = 8, because distances are always positive
Dimensions :
- Length = x + 6 = 8 + 6 = <u>14 mm</u>
- Width = x = <u>8 mm</u>
C) You have to subtract3x from x yielding -2x.
