Now the width is w.
It's twice as long as wide, so now the length is 2w.
If the length is increased by 4 cm, the length will be 2w + 4.
The width is decreased by 3 cm, so the width will be w - 3.
The are of the new rectangle is 100 cm^2.
area = length * width
area = (2w + 4)(w - 3)
The area of the new rectangle is 100, so we get
(2w + 4)((w - 3) = 100
2w^2 - 6w + 4w - 12 = 100
2w^2 - 2w - 112 = 0
w^2 - w - 56 = 0
(w - 8)(w + 7) = 0
w - 8 = 0 or w + 7 = 0
w = 8 or w = -7
A width cannot be negative, so discard w = -7.
w = 8
The width is 8 cm.
The length is twice the width, so the length is 16 cm.

Answer: |10 - (-8)|
The absolute value is 18
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance between two numbers is a subtraction equation.
10 - (-8) Subtracting a negative is like adding a positive
10 + 8 = 18
If you look at it as the first negative sign means -1 multiplied by the next negative number, "Remember that a negative times a negative is a positive!"
65x^2 + 212x - 133
you have to use the quadratic formula
x=( -b +/- √b²-4ac) / 2a
a is 65
b is 212
c is 133
because the first value is squared you will have 2 answers
x= 7/13
x= - 19/5
