Answer: The length is 13 inches and the width is 11 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let L represent the length of the rectangle.
Let W represent the width of the rectangle.
The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as
Area = LW
The area of the rectangle is 143 square inches. This means that
LW = 143 - - - - - - - - - - - - --1
The rectangle's length is 2 in more than its width. This means that
L = W + 2
Substituting L = W + 2 into equation 1, it becomes
W(W + 2) = 143
W² + 2W - 143 = 0
W² + 13W - 11W - 143 = 0
W(W + 13) - 11(W + 13) = 0
W + 13 = 0 or W - 11 = 0
W = - 13 or W = 11
Since the width cannot be negative, it means that W = 11
L = W + 2 = 11 + 2
L = 13
Answer: 2 :))

Answer:
578.50
Step-by-step explanation:
The worker worked 40 hours at 13 dollars
40 * 13 =520
Then they worked 3 hours at 13(1.5) or 19.50
3*19.50 =58.5
The total amount of money earned is regular time plus overtime
520 + 58.5 =578.50
6(x-2.5) ≥ 8-6(3.5+x)
A number is before a parenthesis. The first step is to multiply.
6(x-2.5) = 6x -15
8-6(3.5+x)
2(3.5+x)= 7+2x
6x-15≥7+2x
Now solve
6x-15≥7+2x
-2x -2x
(-2x+2x)= They cancel out
(6x-2x)= 4x
4x-15≥7
+15 +15
4x≥22
/4 /4
You get= x≥5.5
