Step-by-step explanation:
solution.
Let S represent side of the equilateral triangle.
perimeter of equilateral ∆ =3×S
Therefore,if we let width to be represented by W
Width of rectangle=W
Length of rectangle=2W
one side of equilateral triangle= W+8
Therefore after analysing the question, the true statement is; The length of the rectangle is 2W
Simple interest= prt
=806.68 (.0525)(1)
=42.35
Balance=investment + interest earned
806.68+42.35=$849.03
This appears to be just an expression we are simplifying, not an equation we are solving. I THINK you are saying that the expression looks like this:

If you rationalize the denominator, you would get this expression:

which, after simplifying, looks like this:

and that's as simple as I can see that one getting. You can't factor anything out of the denominator to cancel with the numerator, so I think you're as simple as you can get there!
1.75 because you would divide 3.5 by 2
