The area of the triangle could be determined by multiplying the length and the width. Since, we are given the area and the length, to find the width, you divide the area by the length:
w = A ÷ l
w = (x2 - 2x - 15) ÷ (x+3)
What do you have to multiply to (x+3) to yield x2 - 2x - 15? That would be x - 5. Since the sum of -5 and 3 = -2 (middle term) and the their product is -15 (last term).
Hence, the width is (x-5).

Answer:
y =47.5.
Step-by-step explanation:
First eliminate the fractions by multiplying through by the LCM of 7 and 3 which is 21:
21* 6[y-2]/7-21*12 = 21*2[y-7]/3
18(y - 2) - 252 = 14(y - 7)
18y -36 - 252 = 14y - 98
18y - 14y = -98 + 36 + 252
4y = 190
y = 190/4
y = 47.5.
Answer:
Marissa.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find perpendicular slope you basically take the slope of the given line and reverse whatever sign it had previously. (If it was negative, it would become positive. If it was positive it would become negative.)
By doing -A/B it make the previous slope negative.
Brandon only flipped the fraction which would just result in the slope being slightly steeper, or in this case, less steep than the previous line, rather than making it perpendicular.
