The area of a rectangle is A=LW, the area of a square is A=S^2.
W=S-2 and L=2S-3
And we are told that the areas of each figure are the same.
S^2=LW, using L and W found above we have:
S^2=(2S-3)(S-2) perform indicated multiplication on right side
S^2=2S^2-4S-3S+6 combine like terms on right side
S^2=2S^2-7S+6 subtract S^2 from both sides
S^2-7S+6=0 factor:
S^2-S-6S+6=0
S(S-1)-6(S-1)=0
(S-6)(S-1)=0, since W=S-2, and W>0, S>2 so:
S=6 is the only valid value for S. Now we can find the dimensions of the rectangle...
W=S-2 and L=2S-3 given that S=6 in
W=4 in and L=9 in
So the width of the rectangle is 4 inches and the length of the rectangle is 9 inches.

Answer: 3.65
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is asking basically what is 50% or 1/2 of 7.3.
Let's expand the number 7.3
Then, we end up getting 7.30.
We have to find 1/2 of 7.30.
of 7.30 = 
Hope this helps you!
Answer:
x = 52
y = 38
Step-by-step explanation:
Angle x is supplementary to a 128º angle.
Supplementary angles add to 180
x+128 = 180
Subtract 128 from each side
x+128-128 = 180-128
x =52
Angle x and y are complementary.
Complementary angles add to 90
x+y =90
52+y =90
Subtract 52 from each side
52-52 +y = 90-52
y = 38
