Answer: The area of the square is 64 square inches and the area of the new rectangle is 60 square inches. The square's area is 4 inches larger than the rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation: If a side length of the square measures 8 inches, then its area can be calculated as follows;

Area = L x W

The length and the width both measure 8 inches (all sides of a square are equal in length).

Area = 8 x 8

Area = 64

Also, the the new rectangle is formed by increasing the width of the square by 2 inches (that is 8 + 2 = 10), and decreasing the length by 2 inches (that is 8 - 2 = 6). The area of the new rectangle is calculated as follows;

Area = L x W

Area = 10 x 6

Area = 60

Therefore the area of the square is 64 square inches and the area of the rectangle is 60 square inches. The area of the square is 4 inches larger than that of the rectangle.

Please solve for x. I need this answered.
spin [16.1K]

2.5x - 3 + 2x = 1.75x - 1.25x + 13

4.5x - 3 = 0.50x + 13

4.0x = 16

x = 4

Answer: 4

2. We'll assume those xs are in the numerator

(3/7)x - 1/4 + (3/7)x = (9/7)x - (3/7)x + 3/4 - 1

(6/7)x - 1/4 = (6/7)x  - 1/4

0 = 0

That's always true.

Answer: Any x is a solution.
