Answer:

Length = 12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of the recatngle is:

- width → x

and

- length → x+7

The area of a rectangle follows the formula: length*width

Meaning: x * (x + 7) = 60

Expand that: x^2 + 7x = 60

Rearragne the equation and factorise it

(x-5)(x+12) = 0

The width cannot be a negative value, so the answer must be 5.

Remember that x was the width and the length is the width add the 7.

So the length is 12 cm.

The answer would probably be 18 degrees below normal because the absolute values of the rest are 8 not 18 which is the absolute value of 18 degrees below normal.

I dont know what I'm doing! could you help me​

Answer:

c = 24.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we can use the cosine rule

Generally, we have this as:

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bcCos A

12^2 = 14^2 + c^2 - 2(14)Cos 19

144 = 196 + c^2 - 26.5c

c^2 - 26.5c + 196-144 = 0

c^2 - 26.5c + 52 = 0

We can use the quadratic formula here

and that is;

{-(-26.5) ± √(-26.5)^2 -4(1)(52)}/2

(26.5 + 22.23)/2 or (26.5 - 22.23)/2

24.37 or 2.135

By approximation c = 24.34 will be correct
