Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

You can answer this question by using the equation

(8+x)(7+x)=110

The x represents the width, as we do not know the area. If you simplify the equation, it becomes 56+15x+x2=110.

If you move all the terms to the left side, and rearrange it, it can become x^2+15x-54=0

This can be simplified into (x-3)(x+18)=0

This equation makes it so that x is either 3 or -18. It is not possible for a width to be -18, so the width must be 3.

Algebra: Explain in words how to write an equation that is part one: parallel and then also part two: perpendicular to the equat
sweet-ann [11.9K]
A line that is parallel has the same slop where a line that is perpendicular has a slop that is negative and reciprocal.

so for the parallel one you don't need to worry about the slop because it will be 2/3x. But yous the point slope equation form

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y+5=2/3(x+2)

y+5=2/3x+ 4/3

y=2/3x-11/3

-2/3x+y=-11/3

multiple by -1 so A inst negative

2/3-y=11/3

For a line that is perpendicular you just need to flip the original 2/3x slope and make it negative.

y+5=-3/2(x+2)

y+5=-3/2x-3

y=-3/2x-8

3/2x+y=-8
