ANSWER

EXPLANATION
The given rectangle has area,

It was given to us that, the length of the rectangle is l=(x+8)
To find the width, we need to factor, the expression for the area.
We split the middle term to get,

We now factor by grouping;


We know that area of a rectangle is

Hence the width of the rectangle is,
Answer:
14 km
Step-by-step explanation:
6 km in the afternoon
x km in the morning
6= x- 25%
6= 0.75x
x= 6/0.75
x= 8 km
total 6+8= 14 km
Answer:
her total profit is 3
Step-by-step explanation:
1.50 x 30 = 45
to find total profit - 45-42= 3
Determine whether the point 1,5 is a solution to the system of inequalities below y>3x , y>/2x+1
Answer: 6units
Step-by-step explanation:
Since it is a regular polygon, and it has 3 equal sides it means the polygon is a quadrilateral.
From the diagram,
5 - 2x = -4x + 9 ( side of quadrilateral )
Solving for x in the equation
-2x + 4x = 9 - 5 ( collection of like terms in simple linear equation )
2x = 4
Divide through by the coefficient of x which is 2
x = 2.
Therefore, the perimeter of the polygon which equals to the total length of the polygon is
Perimeter = 2 + 2 + 2
= 6units
