to solve  for the dimensions (x+7)(x+2)=66,

we can first use the foiling method to simplify the left side.

x^2 + 2x + 7x + 14 = 66

x^2 + 9x + 14 = 66

now, subtract 66 from both sides.

x^2 + 9x - 52 = 0

now, split this into two parentheses.

(x + 13)(x - 4)

since the root of -13 would give you negative values, x=4. This means that the dimensions of the rectangle are 11 and 6.

Calculate the value of each expression:<br> (-8)•(-2/3)<br> SHOW YOUR WORK:
inna [77]

Answer: \frac{16}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise it is important to remember  the multiplication of signs:

(+)(+)=+\\(-)(-)=+\\(-)(+)=-\\(+)(-)=-

In this case, given the following expression:

(-8)(-\frac{2}{3})

You can idenfity that both factors are negative. Then, the product (The result of the multiplication) will be positive.

Then, in order to get the product, you need to multiply the numerator of the fraction by -8. So, you get:

 \frac{(-2)(-8)}{3}=\frac{16}{3}

You can notice that the numerator and the denominator of the fraction obtained cannot be divided by the same number; therefore, the fraction cannot be simplified.
