Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let width=x

length=2x+3

area=length×width=(2x+3)×x=2x²+3x

2x²+3x=65

2x²+3x-65=0

2x²+13x-10x-65=0

x(2x+13)-5(2x+13)=0

(2x+13)(x-5)=0

either 2x+13=0

2x=-13

x=-13/2 (rejected as x≥0)

x-5=0

x=5

width=5 ft

length=65/5=13 ft

Write an equation in standard form for:
Tasya [4]
Hello!
When finding the perimeter of a rectangle, you have to consider the properties of a rectangle. A rectangle has two pairs of equal sides where one is the width, while the other one is the length. 
Now looking back at your question, it says "... a rectangle that is x units wide" ⇒ you let the width = x ; this is the same with "y units long" ⇒ length = y. Perimeter can just be : P = 24.  
Therefore,
The equation would be:
x + x + y + y = P. 
2x + 2y = P.
(Sub in P = 24)
∴ 2x + 2y = 24. (This should be your answer.)
:) Good luck (Message me if you have any problem)

P1=(-1,3) and P2=(5,-1) <br><br> Find the distance from p1 to P2
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

7.21

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

P1=(-1,3) and P2=(5,-1)

Distance between two points :

d = Sqrt[(x2 - x1)² + (y2 - y1)²]

x1 = - 1 ; y1 = 3

x2 = 5 ; y2 = - 1

d = Sqrt[(5 - (-1))² + ((-1) - 3)²]

d = Sqrt[(5 + 1)² + (-1 - 3)²]

d = sqrt[(6)^2 + (-4)^2]

d = sqrt(36 + 16)

d = sqrt(52)

d = 7.21
