Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area A = 15square cm

Length L = x

Width w = x - 2

Area = L × w

15 = x(x - 2)

15 = x^2 -2x

x^2 -2x - 15 = 0

Solving by factorization

x^2 - 5x + 3x - 15 = 0

(x^2 -5x) + (3x -15) = 0

x(x - 5) + 3(x - 5) = 0

(x + 3)(x - 5) = 0

(x + 3) = 0 or (x - 5) = 0

x = -3 or 5

Since x can't be negative therefore x is 5cm

Length = 5cm

Width = 5-2 = 3cm

Answer:

\sf Since \;\sqrt{\boxed{64}}=\boxed{8}\;and\;\sqrt{\boxed{81}}=\boxed{9}\; \textsf{it is known that $\sqrt{75}$ is between}\\\\\sf \boxed{8}\;and\;\boxed{9}\;.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Perfect squares</u>: 4, 9, 16, 25, 36, 49, 64, 81, 100, 121, ...

To find \sf \sqrt{75} , identify the perfect squares immediately <u>before</u> and <u>after</u> 75:

  • 64 and 81

\begin{aligned}\sf As\;\; 64 < 75 < 81\; & \implies \sf \sqrt{64} < \sqrt{75} < \sqrt{81}\\&\implies \sf \;\;\;\;\;8 < \sqrt{75} < 9 \end{aligned}

\sf Since \;\sqrt{\boxed{64}}=\boxed{8}\;and\;\sqrt{\boxed{81}}=\boxed{9}\; \textsf{it is known that $\sqrt{75}$ is between}\\\\\sf \boxed{8}\;and\;\boxed{9}\;.

See the attachment for the correct placement of \sf \sqrt{75} on the number line.
