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

Trapezoid WKLX has vertices W(2, −3), K(4, −3), L(5, −2) , and X(1, −2) . Trapezoid WKLX ​ is translated 4 units right and 3 uni
guapka [62]
Okay, so first of all, if the trapezoid was translated right 4,
Then all the (x)'s should be 4 more than the original value
For example: (2,-3) <span>→ (6,-3)
Now since the Trapezoid was translated down 3,
Then all the (y)'s should be 3 less than the original value
For example: (2,-3) </span><span>→ (2,-6)
Now do this to all the Vertices
</span>(6,-6)(8,-6)(9,-5)(5,-5)
Final Answer: <span>Option 2</span>

40 pages = 80 minutes
210 pages = ? minutes
Well, take the first fact; 40 pages in 80 minutes and use it to find how many pages per minute.
40/80=1/2
1/2 pages = 1 minute
1 page = 2 minutes
210 pages = ? minutes
210*2=420
420 minutes = 7 hours
210 pages = 7 hours
Hope this helped :)

Leslie has a rectangular patio. She measures it and finds out it is 2135 feet long by 1115 feet wide. She wants to know how many
larisa86 [58]

Answer: (1) Leslie will need 2,380,525 square tiles (1 foot by 1 foot each)

(2) She will have to spend $1,785,393.75 to cover her patio.

Step-by-step explanation: Please refer to the picture attached.

The rectangular patio has been designed and as shown in the diagram has on side measuring 2135 ft and the other side measuring 1115 ft. This means, in order to cover the entire patio, she would have to cover an entire area defined as 2,135 feet into 1,115 feet. If one tile measures 1 foot long by 1 foot wide, the total number of tiles to cover the patio can simply be derived as;

Area = L x W

Where the length is 2135 and the width is 1115,

Area = 2135 x 1115

Area = 2380525

**Having in mind that one tile measures 1 ft by 1 ft, the area of each tile is given as

Area = L x W

Area = 1 x 1

Area = 1 square foot**

(1) The above calculation shows that Leslie would be using up a total of 2,380,525 square tiles to completely cover her patio.

(2) Having been told that each square foot of tile costs 75 cents ($0.75), the total amount spent to cover her patio would be calculated as follows;

Cost = Area x cost per tile

Cost = 2380525 x 0.75

Cost = 1785393.75

The total cost therefore is $1,785,393.75
