Answer:

Length = 21 cm

Width = 14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the jewel case = m cm

So, the length of the case = (m + 7) cm

Area of the case = 294cm^{2}

Now, Area of a Rectangle = Length x Width

=   m x (m + 7)

⇒  m x (m + 7) = 294

or, m^{2}  + 7m - 294 = 0

⇒  m^{2}  + 21m  - 14m - 294 = 0

or, m(m+21) -14( m + 21)

⇒(m + 21)(m -14) = 0

Hence, either (m + 21) = 0  ⇒ m  = -21

or, (m -14) = 0⇒ m = 14

Since, m is the width of a case, so it can not be negative

Hence the width of the jewel case = m = 14 cm

And the length of the case = (m + 7) = 14 + 7 = 21 cm

Geometry Does a SSSS congruence relationship exist for parallelograms? If so explain why. If not, create a counter-example Geome
Lady_Fox [76]

We need to notice that SSSS does not exist as a method to prove that parallelograms are congruent

Counterexample

As we can see we have the same measure of the side of the intern angles of the figures are different therefore we can't use SSSS to prove congruence

Simplify the following radical <br> Sqrt 126x^13
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

\large\boxed{\sqrt{126x^{13}}=3x^6\sqrt{14x}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Domain:\ x\geq0\\\\\sqrt{126x^{13}}=\sqrt{9\cdot14\cdot x^{12+1}}\\\\\text{use}\ a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\=\sqrt{9\cdot14\cdot x^{12}\cdot x^1}=\sqrt{9\cdot14\cdot x^{6\cdot2}\cdot x}\\\\\text{use}\ \sqrt{ab}=\sqrt{a}\cdot\sqrt{b}\ \text{and}\ (a^n)^m=a^{nm}\\\\=\sqrt9\cdot\sqrt{14}\cdot\sqrt{(x^6)^2}\cdot\sqrt{x}\\\\\text{use}\ \sqrt{a^2}=a\ \text{for}\ a\geq0\\\\=3\cdot\sqrt{14}\cdot x^6\cdot\sqrt{x}=3x^6\sqrt{14x}
