Answer:

width = 23 inches

length = 57 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x inches be the width of the rectangular solar panel.

So,

width = x inches

3 times the width = 3x inches

12 inches shorter than 3 times the width = 3x - 12 inches

length = 3x - 12 inches

The perimeter of the rectangle is

P=2(\text{Width}+\text{Length})

Hence,

160=2(x+3x-12)\\ \\160=2(4x-12)\\ \\80=4x-12\ [\text{Divided by 2}]\\ \\4x=80+12\\ \\4x=92\\ \\x=23\ inches\\ \\3x-12=3\cdot 23-12=69-12=57\ inches

Jenny thinks that the expression below is equal to x²-4. If you agree, show that she is correct. If you disagree, show that she
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Jenny is wrong the correct answer is x²+ 4 - 4 x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

(x-2)³∕x-2

(x-2)³∕(x-2) =(x-2) (x-2)²∕(x-2)

(x-2)³∕(x-2) = (x-2)²

As we know that

(a-b)² = a²+b² - 2 ab

So

(x-2)² = x²+ 2² - 2 ˣ 2 ˣ x =  x²+ 4 - 4 x

(x-2)² =  x²+ 4 - 4 x

It means that

(x-2)³∕(x-2) = (x-2)² =  x²+ 4 - 4 x

So Jenny is wrong the correct answer is x²+ 4 - 4 x.
