Given: A= 14 ft²  and  l= 2w-3 
formula for area of a rectangle is A=lw
substitute for what you know and simplify: 
14=(2w-3)w -> w= either -2 or 7/2 but because a width value can not be negative you can eliminate the -2 value. w=7/2 
subsitute width into equation for length and solve
l=2w-3= 2(7/2)-3= 4
width: 3.5 ft
length: 4 ft

What are all the solutions of x2 + 3x - 4 = 0?<br> 3 ооооооо<br> DONE
Allisa [31]

Answer:

x = -4, x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Now I do not know why you said done, but just saying, if you are done with a question, you should delete it. Now I am just going to assume you knew this and move on with the solution of the problem.

When you factor this equation, you will get (x+4)(x-1).

You can then solve for x using zero product property. The first root is -4 and the second root is 1.

Solve the system of equations by elimination <br> 3x+4y=31<br> 2x-4y=-6
ANEK [815]
3x + 4y = 31
2x - 4y = -6

*The +4 and -4 in the center of the equation cancel out because 4-4 = 0*

3x = 31
2x = -6
------------

*add like terms*

3x + 2x = 5x

31 - 6 = 25

So now you should have this written on your paper ... > 5x = 25

*Divide by 5 on each side*

5x = 25

2.) The answer is still letter A. 5 +2x =17.
