Answer:

15 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a rectangle, you have to multiply the length by the width.

In this case, the width is 5 centimeters.

So, so find the area, you would have to multiply 5 by the length. Let's call the length "x".

The equation to solve this problem would be:

5x - 75

Now we can solve the equation...

Divide both sides by 5...

5x / 5 = 75 / 5

x = 15

Since x is equal to 15, that means that the length is 15, because we said that the length is equal to x.

Length = x = 15

Hope this helped!

Answer: 15 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculate the area of a rectangle is:

A=l*w

Where "l" is the lenght and "w" is the width.

You know that the area of this rectangle is 75 square centimeters and the width is 5 centimeters. Then, you can substitute these values into the formula A=l*w and solve for the lenght. Then you get:

75cm^2=l(5cm)\\\\\frac{75cm^2}{5cm}=l\\\\l=15cm

Therefore, the lenght of the rectangle is 15 centimeters.

(x^2 + 5x + 2) – (5x^2 – x – 2) =
zlopas [31]

Answer:

{ \tt{( {x}^{2} + 5x + 2) - (5 {x}^{2} - x - 2)  }} \\  = { \tt{(1 - 5) {x}^{2}  + (5 + 1)x + (2 + 2)}} \\  = { \tt{ - 4 {x}^{2} + 6x + 4 }} \\  = { \tt{ - 2(2 {x}^{2} - 3x - 2) }}

The circumference of the earth is about 25,000 miles. Approximately how far is it from any point on the earth's surface to its c
ELEN [110]
Since C = 2rπ
 
if the C of earth = 25000 miles

then the r =  C ÷ (2π)
                = 25,000 miles ÷ 2π
                = 12500 ÷ π
                ≈ 3978.87358 miles

Since radius is a measure of the distance from the center to any point on the circle then that distance would be about 3978.8736 miles<span />
