Answer:

the length and width . Round to the nearest tenth are 8.8 inches and 3.8 inches respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area A of a rectangle is the product of the length L and width W. This may be expressed mathematically as

A = L * W

As such, given that the length is 5 inches more than the width,

L = W + 5

33 = W(W + 5)

W² + 5W  - 33 = 0

Using the formula method which states that

s = -b±√(b²-4ac)/2a

W = -5 ± √5² - 4(1)(-33)/2

= -5 ± 12.53/2

= 7.53/2 (since length cannot be negative)

= 3.755 inches

L = 3.755 + 5

= 8.755 inches

Question 3
hoa [83]

answer is (-7,2)

y = -x -5

y= x+9

Both equations have y on the left hand side

So we equate both equations

We replace -x-5 for  y in the second equation

-x -5 = x+9

Subtract x on both sides

-2x -5 = 9

Now add 5 on both sides

-2x = 14

Divide by -2 from both sides

x = -7

Now plug in -7 for x in the first equation

y = -x -5

y = -(-7)  -5= 7-5 = 2

So answer is (-7,2)

What is algebra? What do you do with algebra?
tigry1 [53]

Algebra is a very important branch of math.

Algebra is a lot like arithmetic which means it follows all the rules of arithmetic, and it still uses the four main operations that arithmetic is built on.

In arithmetic, the only thing that was unknown was the answer to the problem. For example, 39 + 2 = 41.  In algebra, we use a variable to represent the number. A variable is a letter that represents any number. The most common variable is "x".
