Length of the rectangle is 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Perimeter of the rectangle = 26 in and width = 8 in. Find the length.

Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(length + width)

26 = 2(length + 8)

13 = length + 8

length = 13 - 8

Length = 5 in

The answer would be: <span>√x+3=13

</span>A radical equation is an equation with at least one variable put on a radical form. In this question, there is only one kind of variable which is x. Then, you need to find the equation where x is in the radical form. The radical form can be expressed with square root symbol.
The option with √x would be only <span>√x+3=13

how do I do this? I think I solved for z=24 but i'm not totally sure. I'm confused on how to solve for x and y mostly. We are us

The answer would be 21 because its the same length as the other side.
