Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
diagonals ( n is the number of sides )
Answer:
Length = 10
Width = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
If the width of a rectangle is 3 units less than the length and if the area is 130 square units, the length is 10 units and the width is 13 units.
Formula: A=wl
Therefore, you have to find what two numbers multiply together in order to recieve 130 units.
A=wl=13·10=130
Let's use the "elimination by addition/subtraction" method to solve this system for x and y.
<span> -8x=72-16y
4x=-92+16y <= Mult. all 3 terms by 2: 8x = - 184 + 32y
Now combine the following, column by column:
</span><span> -8x= 72-16y
</span>8x = - 184 + 32y
-----------------------
0 = -112 + 16y. Solving for y, 16y = 112, and y = 7.
Now subst. 7 for y in either of the original equations and calculate x:
<span>4x=-92+16(7) => 4x = -92 + 112 = 20. Then x = 5.
Solution is 5, -7 (or, better written) (5, - 7).</span>
