The area of a rectangle is A=LW, the area of a square is A=S^2.
W=S-2 and L=2S-3
And we are told that the areas of each figure are the same.
S^2=LW, using L and W found above we have:
S^2=(2S-3)(S-2) perform indicated multiplication on right side
S^2=2S^2-4S-3S+6 combine like terms on right side
S^2=2S^2-7S+6 subtract S^2 from both sides
S^2-7S+6=0 factor:
S^2-S-6S+6=0
S(S-1)-6(S-1)=0
(S-6)(S-1)=0, since W=S-2, and W>0, S>2 so:
S=6 is the only valid value for S. Now we can find the dimensions of the rectangle...
W=S-2 and L=2S-3 given that S=6 in
W=4 in and L=9 in
So the width of the rectangle is 4 inches and the length of the rectangle is 9 inches.
<span><span>If you would like to solve the equation </span>- 7 * x
- 3 * x + 2 = 8 * x - 8, you can calculate this using the following steps:<span>
- 7 * x - 3 * x
+ 2 = 8 * x - 8
- 7 * x -
3 * x - 8 * x = - 8 - 2
- 18 * x =
- 10 /(-18)
x = 10 / 18
x = 5/9
<span>The
correct result would be </span>5/9<span>.</span></span></span>
Answer:A
Step-by-step explanation:
the y-intercept is when x-axis is 0 and that means that hours of jogging is 0 and the y-axis is 1 minunte
B looks the most reasonable
