Width =3.5, length = 4
Let's make a few equations to summarize what we know.:
a = 14
l = 2w -3
a = wl
Now let's substitute the expression for l into the expression for area and solve.
a = w(2w - 3)
a = 2w^2 - 3w
14 = 2w^2 - 3w
0 = 2w^2 - 3w - 14
which factors into
(2w - 7) (w + 2)
Solving for w
2w - 7 = 0
2w = 7
w = 3.5
w+2 = 0
w = -2
So w can be either 3.5 or -2. Since a negative width doesn't make sense, w = 3.5
Let's verify
w = 3.5
l = 2w - 3
l = 2*3.5 - 3
l = 7 - 3
l = 4
a = wl
a = 3.5 * 4
a = 14
So the width is 3.5 and the length is 4.
Answer:
Fraction Form: 
Decimal Form: 0.4583
Step-by-step explanation:
Apply the fraction rule: 
Least Common Multiple (LCM) of 12 and 8: 24
Apply the fraction rule:
The answer is [ yes; ΔABC ~ ΔFGH by SAS Similarity ]
SAS Similarity states that two triangles have congruent corresponding angles and the corresponding sides have an identical ratio
The angle measure aren't given but the angles look to be the same.
To find the scale factor, divide.
12 / 8 = 1.5
15 / 10 = 1.5
The corresponding sides have an identical ratio.
This proves that option B is correct.
Best of Luck!
Answer:
r=20
Step-by-step explanation:
take the number you have, divide it by the numerator, and multiply it by the denominator, like shown:
4/5 of a number (r) is 16
16/4=4
4*5=20
r=20
ta-da! :P
