Answer:

x(x - 4) = 12

x2 - 4x = 12

x2 - 4x - 12 = 0

(x - 6)(x + 2) = 0

x - 6 = 0

    x = 6

If the length is 6, the width must be 2.

Find the distance UV between the points U(4,−2) and V(6,−1). Round your answer to the nearest tenth, if necessary.
Liono4ka [1.6K]

The horizontal distance is the difference of x-coordinates: 6 - 4 = 2.

The vertical distance is the difference of y-coordinates: -1 - (-2) = 1.

The straight-line distance (d) can be found using the Pythagorean theorem, since the vertical and horizontal distances are at right angles to each other.

.. d² = 2² + 1² = 5

.. d = √5 ≈ 2.2

The distance UV is about 2.2.
