The length and the width of the rug having an area of 40 square feet will be 5 feet and 8 feet respectively.
<h3>what is area?</h3>
Area is defined as the space covered by any object in the two dimensional plane. Here it is given that the area of the rug should be 40 square feet and the length of the rug is 3 less then its width.
So to find out the length and the width we will form an equation.
Let the width is = x feet
So the length will be = x-3 feet
Now the area will be


By solving the quadratic equation




Here the value of x will be positive because length cant be negative.
So the width of the rug will be x=8 feet
Length of the rug will be x-3= 8-3=5 feet
Hence the length and the width of the rug having an area of 40 square feet will be 5 feet and 8 feet respectively.

Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
since the function is -2x+8 and you have been told to find f(-1.8) you have to replace -1.8 were there's x in the function.
f(x)=-2x+8
f(-1.8)=-2x+8
=-2(-1.8)+8
=3.6+8
=11.6 round off to 12
I hope this helps
218.7 / 6.75 = 32.4 you divide the area by the base
Answer:
2 second one cuz x can't be smaller than 0 because x is SQUARED
