Formula for area of rectangle:
A=L x w
Here A=85 square ft
Length, L=w+12

Put values in formula.
85=(w+12)w
85=w^2+12w
Subtract 85 from both sides
w^2+12w-85=0
Factorise the equation.
(w-5)(w+17)=0
w=5 and w=-17
Ignore the negative value of width.
Width, w= 5 ft  and Length, L=12+5=17 ft

Answer: Width=5 ft and Length=17 ft

Answer:

a=20 m²

b=21 cm²

c=36 dm²

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 12²+16²=a²

144+256=a²

400=a²

√400=a

a=20

B) 28²+b²=35²

784+b²=1225

b²=1225-784

b²=441

b=√441

b=21

C) c²+15²=39²

c²+225=1521

c²=1296

c=√1296

c=36

5 kilograms of coffee are going to be shared equally among 4 people.
kherson [118]

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not sure if this will help but to find out how much coffee 4 people would need you would have to divide 4 into 5 which is 1 1/5

EQUATION-- 4/5= X

I chose that because / means divide 5 into 4 would give you x we don't know what x is until we actually do the problem

Even if im not correct I hope it helped a bit
