Since width is the smaller value, set width=x. That wold mean that length=x+3. Since Area=width*length, 40=x(3+x). Distribute the x to give you 40=3x+x^2. Set the equation equal to 0 giving you x^2+3x-40=0. Factor the equation to give you (x+8)(x-5)=0. Set each factor equal to 0. x+8=0 gives you x=-8 & x=-5 gives you x=5. Since we're working with lengths of objects, it can't be negative. Therefore, your width is 5. To find length, substitute width into the original expression (x+3). Therefore, length is 5+3=8.
Answer:9.4$ a hour
Step-by-step explanation:
110 - 16 = 94
94 / 10 = 9.4
she makes 9.4$ a hour

A rectangle has two dimensions, width and length, and the area of it is their product.
since we know its area is 3x²-11x-4, then the two factors from that trinomial are the likely width and length, namely (3x + 1) (x - 4).
you can check them with FOIL.
The answer would be 2 1/3 or 2.3 repeating or 7/3
