Answer:

L = (x - 2) meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the rectangle = (x² - 7x + 10) m²

The width = (x - 5) m

length = ?

Area of a rectangle = length × width

x² - 7x + 10 = L(x -5)

note L = length

divide both sides by (x-5)

(x² - 7x + 10)/(x - 5) = L

L = x² - 7x + 10 / (x -5)

Factorize x² - 7x + 10

find the numbers you can multiply to give you 10 and also add to give you -7

The numbers are -2 and -5. Therefore,

x² - 2x - 5x + 10 = 0

x(x - 2) - 5(x - 2) = 0

(x-5)(x-2) = 0

Let us go back to our division

L = x² - 7x + 10 / (x -5)

x² - 7x + 10 = (x-5)(x-2)

L = (x-5)(x-2) / (x -5)

L = (x - 2) meters

What is m∠G ?<br><br> Enter your answer in the box.
Elena-2011 [213]
We are given all the angle measures, therefore we can equate all the expressions to 180 degrees. We can do this by using the Triangle Angle Sum Theorem, which states that all triangles' interior angles add up to 180 degrees. After we do that, we get:
x + 3x + 25 + x - 5 = 180
Now, just solve for x:
x + 3x + 25 + x - 5 = 180
5x + 20 = 180
5x = 160
x = 32
We've found the value of x, but the question asks us the measure of angle G. We can find the angle measure by substituting 32 into the expression for angle G. Doing so and simplifying gives us 121 degrees. Therefore, the measure of angle G is 121 degrees. Hope my answer has come of aid to you and have a great day!

Answer:

cousin: m-3

uncle: 5m

together: 6m-3

Step-by-step explanation:

if her cousin is 3 years younger, they would be m-3. since their uncle is her age times 5, he would be 5m. add those and you get 5m+m-3. combine the m's (and get 6m), then add the -3 to get 6m-3
