---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Define length and width
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let the width be x
Width = x
Length = 3x

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Form equation and solve for x
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
x(3x) = 48
3x² = 48
x² = 48 ÷ 3
x² = 16
x = √16
x = 4

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find length and width
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Width = x = 4
Length = 3x = 3(4) = 12

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: Width = 4cm, Length = 12cm
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Two ways to solve 2(4x-11)=10
Leokris [45]
Hi there,

2 (4x - 11) = 10
4x - 11 = 5
4x = 5 + 11
4x = 16 then divide both sides by 4
16 divided by 4 = 4

Hope this helps :)

X^2- 11 = 70 I need help on how to solve this
brilliants [131]

Answer: Add 11 to the other side of the equation, giving you 81. Then, since x is square you are going to need to square root both sides (\sqrt{x} this symbol). When you do that, you should get what x is! Let me know if you still need help!

Please answer it in two minutes
Reil [10]

Answer:

61 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

As long as the two figures are congruent, angle P corresponds to angle T, angle [cut off but it says 93 degrees] corresponds to angle U, angle N corresponds to angle V, and angle M corresponds to angle S.

Since we already have the value of T, we know the value of P. The measure of angle P is 61 degrees.

Hope this helps!
