The area of a rectangle is equal  L x  W   

4 cm longer than it is wide   L = 4 + <span>W
</span>
L x  W = 117     we replace L here 

(4 + <span>W ) x W = 117 
</span>
4W + W ^2  = 117 

<span>4W + W ^2  -117 = 0
</span>W ^2 +4 W -117 = 0

W² + 4W - 117 = 0

<span>
THEN u want to use the </span>use the quadratic formula
 

OR Factoring gives us

(W + 13)(W - 9) = 0

W = -13 or 9

But it can't be negative, so

W = 9  and L= 9+4 = 13

2+1.25f=10−2.75f solve for f
Inga [223]
Hey there!

2 + 1.25f = 10 - 2.75f
Add 2.75f to both sides.

1.25f + 2.75f = 4f

4f + 2 = 10
Subtract 2 from both sides.

4f = 8
Divide both sides by 4 to solve for f.

f = 2

I hope this helps!

(2x - 3y)(4x - y) can you help me
Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

<h2>(2x - 3y)(4x - y) = 8x² - 14xy + 3y²</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Use FOIL:  <em>(a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd</em>

(2x - 3y)(4x - y) = (2x)(4x) + (2x)(-y) + (-3y)(4x) + (-3y)(-y)

= 8x² - 2xy - 12xy + 3y²

<em>combine like terms</em>

= 8x² + (-2xy - 12xy) + 3y² = 8x² - 14xy + 3y²
