Area of a rectangle is length by width, width is x, length is x+8
x×(x+8)=240
x²+8x=240
x²+8x-240=0
Use the quadratic formula to solve


It is a distance so can't be negative, so the answer must be 12
Answer:
1= 36
2= 6
3= 42
4= 162
5= 200
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: b= 11.2
10^2 + b^2 = 15^2
100 + b^2 = 225
b^2 = 125
b= 
b= 11.2

Step-by-step explanation:
You didn't give the options relating to the question.
To solve this first, you need to know that we have to note that (+) × (-) = (-). Therefore, 1.25+(-0.75) will be thesame as writing 1.25 - 0.75. This will then be:
= 1.25 - 0.75
= 0.50
