Answer:

Length is 15 inches

Width is 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A = L*W

the Width = L-7

120 = L (L-7)

120 = L^2-7L

subtract 120 from each side

0 = L^2 - 7L - 120

(L-15) (L +8 )

so L = 15  inches

and W = 15-7 = 8 inches

check your answer: does 15*8 = 120? yes!

Consider the line segment below that is five feet long. Is Q the midpoint of PR? Justify your answer.
givi [52]

Answer:

Q is not the midpoint of PR

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

If Q is the midpoint of PR

then

PQ=QR

substitute the given values and solve for x

15x-2=5x+3\\15x-5x=3+2\\10x=5\\x=0.5

Remember that

PR=5\ ft ----> given problem

PR=PQ+QR\\PR=(15x-2)+(5x+3)

substitute the value of x

PR=(15(0.5)-2)+(5(0.5)+3)

PR=(5.5)+(5.5)

PR=11\ ft

Compare with the given value of PR

5\ ft\neq 11\ ft

therefore

Q is not the midpoint of PR
