Answer:

The answer is

<h2> 19 feet</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = length × width

let w be the width and l be the length

Area of rectangle = 247 ft²

width is 6 feet less than its length is

w = l - 6

247 = l( 1 - 6)

l² - 6l - 247 = 0

(l + 13) (l - 19) = 0

l + 13 = 0 l - 19 = 0

l = - 13 l = 19

Since the length should be positive

The length of the rectangle is

<h3> 19 feet</h3>

Hope this helps you

Answer:

Length of the rectangle, L = 19 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = Length * Width

Area of the rectangle, A = 247 ft²

Let the length of the rectangle be L

The width of the rectangle = W

Since the width of the rectangle is 6 ft less that the length;

W = L - 6

A = L * W

247 = L * (L - 6)

247 = L² - 6L

L² - 6L - 247 = 0

By solving the quadratic equation above:

(L - 19)(L + 13) = 0

L - 19 = 0, L = 19

L + 13 = 0; L = -13

Since the length of a rectangle cannot be negative, L = 19 ft

1/2 of angle D is given as 32 degrees.

The 3 inside angles need to add up to 180 degrees.

Angle B is a right angle, which is 90.

Angle C = 180 - 90 - 32 = 58 degrees.

Which of the following is a factor of 64x^3 +343
Lyrx [107]

Answer:

(4x + 7) or

(16x^2 - 28x + 49)

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the sum of cubes. If you have choices you really should list them because often the way  we write  answers is not in agreement with what you are given.

Step One

Factor 64x^3  and 343 into prime factors.

64x^3: 4*4*4*x * x *x

343: 7 * 7 * 7

Step Two

Factor using the sum of cubes.

(4x + 7)([4x]^2 - 7*4x + 7^2)

(4x + 7)(16x^2 - 28x + 49)

Answer 1: True

Also, Given a triangle, the circumscribed circle is the circle that passes through all three vertices of the triangle. The center of the circumscribed circle is the circumcenter of the triangle, the point where the perpendicular bisectors of the sides meet.
