X shortest piece
X+6 middle piece
X+8 longest piece
Add them
3x+14=56
3x=42
X=42/3=14
Answer:
The width is 
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of the rectangular yoga mat can be found using the formula;
.
.
It was given that the width of the mat is eight less than half the length.

We put equation (2) into equation (1) to get;
.
.
.

Divide both sides by 3;

We put
into equation 2 to get;



X²(x - 4) +4 (x - 4)
(x² + 4) (x - 4)
First find the common terms that can enter into both x³ and 4x² then write its down in this case it’s x² that can enter x³ leaving only x _since x³/x² = subtract of the indices. x² will also enter 4x² leaving only four hence you having x² (x - 4)
then do the same for the next pair of terms giving you 4 that can enter into both 4 and 16
Leaving you with +4 (x - 4)
Now you can put the common terms together like so (x² + 4) and choose get one of the other two which are the same= (x - 4)
= (x² + 4) (x - 4)
Step-by-step explanation:

Use the identity

on the left side.
![\dfrac{1 - \cos [2(\frac{\pi}{4} - \alpha)]}{2} = \frac{1}{2}(1 - \sin 2\alpha)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%20%5Cdfrac%7B1%20-%20%5Ccos%20%5B2%28%5Cfrac%7B%5Cpi%7D%7B4%7D%20-%20%5Calpha%29%5D%7D%7B2%7D%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%281%20-%20%5Csin%202%5Calpha%29%20)

Now use the identity
