Which statements are true?

djyliett [7]

Answer:

All Triangles are closed figure polygons that have three straight sides

Step-by-step explanation:

All 2D shapes are plane figures so this one is false. Three right angles are greater than 180 so this is fake. Polygon and closed figures are shapes with three or more closed sides. And triangles have straight sides.

The length of a rectangle is 5 ft less than three times the width, and the area of the rectangle is 50 ft². Find the dimensions

Mariulka [41]

Answer

Length = 10 ft

Width = 5 ft

Explanation

Area of the rectangle given = 50 ft²

Let the width of the rectangle be x

So this means the length of the rectangle will be 3x - 5

What to find:

The dimensions of the rectangle.

Step-by-step solution:

Area of a rectangle = length x width

i.e A = L x W

Put A = 50, L = 3x - 5, W = x into the formula.

$\begin{gathered} 50=(3x-5)x \\ 50=3x^2-5x \\ 3x^2-5x-50=0 \end{gathered}$

The quadratic equation can now be solve using factorization method:

$\begin{gathered} 3x^2-5x-50=0 \\ 3x^2-15x+10x-50=0 \\ 3x(x-5)+10(x-5)=0 \\ (3x+10)(x-5)=0 \\ 3x+10=0\text{ }or\text{ }x-5=0 \\ 3x=-10\text{ }or\text{ }x=5 \\ x=-\frac{10}{3}\text{ }or\text{ }x=5 \end{gathered}$

Since the dimension can not be negative, hence the value of x will be = 5.

Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle will be:
