Answer: the length and width are
(x + 8) and (x + 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
The rug has an area represented by the expression
Area = 4x² + 64x + 256.
The factors in the factored expressions represent the length and width of the rug.
Dividing the the equation by 4, it becomes
x² + 16x + 64 = 0
We would find two numbers such that their sum or difference is 16x and their product is 64x^2.
The two numbers are 8x and 8x. Therefore,
x² + 8x + 8x + 64 = 0
x(x + 8) + 8(x + 8) = 0
The factors are
(x + 8)(x + 8)
1/2 Gallon is equal to 64 ounces
16 x 6 = 96
96 + 64 = 160
5 gallons is equal to 640
640 - 160 = 480
Answer: They were not correct it was bigger by 2.5 so the people were wrong
(20)(7) = 140 hours per week
(20)(365) = 7300 hours per year
