Let the length be l
Then, 
l *(l-3)= 88
l²-3l =88
l²-3l-88=0
l²-11l +8l -88 =0
l(l-11) + 8(l-11) =0
(l+8)(l-11)=0
As, l can't be negative, length=11cm and width=(l-3)=11-3 =8 cm

Homework Progress<br> 0<br> Find the nth term of the following sequence: 4 7 12 19 28
just olya [345]

<em>Answer:</em>

n²+3

<em>Explanation:</em>

The differences between the terms are not the same, so this is not "linear". Knowing that the sequence may have started with a 1, you can try subtracting the first number with a number to get 1, and use that number to subtract the rest.

4 - 3 = 1
7 - 3 = 4
12 - 3 = 9
19 - 3 = 16
28 - 3 = 25

In this case, subtracting 3 to all the numbers gave us perfect squares! So this means the nth term has to do with squaring the number and adding three afterward! This can be checked.

√1 = 1
√4 = 2
√9 = 3
√16 = 4
√25 = 5

As we found the values of these terms by subtracting three first and then finding its square root, the nth term will be the opposite; squaring and then adding three! Again, this can be checked!

1² + 3 = 4
2² + 3 = 7
3² + 3 = 12
4² + 3 = 19
5² + 3 = 28

Hope this helps !! :D

What is the equation of the line with a y-intercept of −10 and a slope of 3?
musickatia [10]

Answer:

y = 3x - 10

Step-by-step explanation:

It's not an option, but you already said in the instructions that the y-intercept is -10.

y = mx + b

M is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
