The area of a rectangle is found by multiplying the length by the width: A = lw. A certain rectangle has an area of x2 + 7x + 12

.
Factor the trinomial to find the length and width of the rectangle.
l = x + 6; w = x + 2
l = x + 5; w = x + 7
l = x + 4; w = x + 3

Answer:

Option C is correct

l = x+4 unit and w = x+3 unit

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle is given by:

A =lw           ....[1]

where

A is the area of rectangle

l is the length of a rectangle

w is the width of a rectangle.

As per the statement:

A certain rectangle has an area of x^2 + 7x + 12

⇒A = x^2+7x+12

Now factor this trinomial :

A = x^2+4x+3x+12

⇒A = x(x+4)+3(x+4)

⇒A=(x+4)(x+3) unit square

On comparing with [1] we have;

l = x+4 unit and w = x+3 unit

Therefore,the length and width of the rectangle are:

l = x+4 unit and w = x+3 unit

Since it is given that the formula for area is length times width and the area is already given, we are going to find out the value of the width and the length by factoring. The first thing we are going to do is to find first the factors of 12. The factor that can be used for this are 4 and 3. Then, continue with the solution.
So the correct answer for this would be the last option.  <span>l = x + 4; w = x + 3.</span>

find the ratio which are the points p(X,2) divides the line segment joining the point a(12,5) and b(4,-3) also find X plz give a
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:     ratio a:b = 3:5        p(X, 2) = p(9, 2)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Plot points a = (12, 5) and b = (4, -3) and draw a line segment from a to b.

Notice that when y = 2, X = 9 so point p = (9, 2)      <em>see graph</em>

The distance from a to p = 3√2

The distance from b to p = 5√2

So the ratio of a:b = 3√2:5√2       = 3:5  <em>when simplified</em>

<em />

<em>To find the distance, use the distance formula OR pythagorean theorem.</em>

Lin took 75 boxes of carrots and 80 boxes of potatoes to the market. She sold 68 boxes of carrots and 71 boxes of potatoes. How
enot [183]

For this case we have:

x: Represents the number of carrot boxes

y: Represents the number of boxes of potatoes

Initially we have:

x = 75\\y = 80

If you sold 68 boxes of carrot we have:

x = 75-68 = 7

If you sold 71 boxes of potatoes, we have:

y = 80-71 = 9

The number of boxes I take home is given by:x + y = 7 + 9 = 16

ANswer:

7 boxes of carrots left

There are 9 boxes of potatoes left

A total of 16 boxes remain
