Let the width be x, then the length is x + 12.
Area = length x width = x(x + 12) = 589
x^{2} +12x = 589
Solving the quadratic equation, we have that
x = 19 feet
i.e. the width is 19 feet.

Solve the following inequality.
Luden [163]
First simplify.
-\frac{2}{3}x \ \textgreater \  \mathrm{Multiply\:fractions}:\ \:a\cdot \frac{b}{c}=\frac{a\:\cdot \:b}{c} \ \textgreater \  -\frac{2x}{3}

\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:-1\:\left(reverse\:the\:inequality\right)} \ \textgreater \ \ \textgreater \  \frac{2x}{3}\ \textless \ -8

\mathrm{Multiply\:both\:sides\:by\:}3 \ \textgreater \  \frac{3\cdot \:2x}{3}\ \textless \ 3\left(-8\right) \ \textgreater \  Simplify \ \textgreater \  2x\ \textless \ -24

\mathrm{Divide\:both\:sides\:by\:}2 \ \textgreater \  \frac{2x}{2}\ \textless \ \frac{-24}{2} \ \textgreater \  Simplify \ \textgreater \  x\ \textless \ -12

Therefore\; x\ \textless \ -12 \;is\;our\;answer!

Hope this helps!

Sin = opposite/hypothenuse
Given opposite = 16
Hypothenuse = ?
Use Pythagorean theorem to find hypothenuse

12^2 + 16^2 = h^2
144 + 256 = h^2
h^2 = 400, h = 20

You know hypothenuse is 20
Opposite/hypothenuse

Solution: 16/20
Simplify if you need to (4/5)
