The area is the product of length and width, which is to say that the length and width are factors of the area.
Assuming the dimensions are integers, you want factors of 84 that differ by 5.
... 84 = 1×84 = 2×42 = 3×28 = 4×21 = 6×14 = 7×12
The last of these pairs differ by 5, so ...
- the length is 12 inches
- the width is 7 inches.
If you can manipulate the two equations so that they have exactly the same coefficients (e. g., 3x + 4y = 8 and 2x + 4y = 8), then you conclude that the two lines coincide (overlap), and that there are thus infinitely many solutions.
Answer:
21.758
Step-by-step explanation:
If you draw the triangle out, you find that cos 41 = x/28.83, when x is equal to the side opposite the 49 angle
Simplify this into 28.83 cos 41, and plug it into the calculator and you get
21.75827.
