Answer:

l=31\ cm\\\\w=24\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula that is used to calculate the area of a rectangle is:

A=lw

Where "l" is the lenght and "w" is the width.

You know that the area of that rectangle is:

A=744\ cm^2

And, according to the exercise, its lenght is 7 more than its width; then:

l=w+7

Then, you can make the corresponding substitution into the formula A=lw:

 744=(w+7)w

Simplify:

744=w^2+7w\\\\w^2+7w-744=0

Factor the equation. Find two numbers whose sum is 7 and whose product is -744. These are 31 and -24.

Then, you get:

(w-24)(w+31)=0\\\\w_1=24\\\\w_2=-31

The width of the rectangle is the positive value:

w=24\ cm

Then, the lenght is:

l=24+7\\\\l=31\ cm

Find x<br><br><br>A) 12<br><br>B) 13 <br><br>C) 11<br><br>D) 10
Soloha48 [4]

We know that the sum of arc ND and arc ML divided by 2 is equivalent to 6x + 23.

Thus, we can form an equation:

6x + 23 = (11x + 8 + 3x + 14)/2

Simplify:

6x + 23 = (14x + 22)/2

Simply again:

6x + 23 = 7x + 11

Subtract 6x from both sides:

23 = x + 11

Subtract 11 from both sides

x = 12

Option A, or x = 12
