The formula of an area of a rectangle:
A = wl
We have l = w - 4 and A = 21.
Substitute:
w(w - 4) = 21 <em>use distributive property</em>
(w)(w) + (w)(-4) = 21
w² - 4w = 21 <em>subtract 21 from both sides</em>
w² - 4w - 21 = 0
w² - 7w + 3w - 21 = 0
w(w - 7) + 3(w - 7) = 0
(w - 7)(w + 3) = 0 ↔ w - 7 = 0 ∨ w + 3 = 0
w = 7 ∨ w = -3 < 0
l = w - 4 → l = 7 - 4 = 3
<h3>Answer: the length = 3 u.</h3>
The answer is A. x=4.
Start off by distributing the parentheses into the equation.
4x+2(x+6)=36
4x+2x+12=26
Combine like terms.
4x+2x=6x
6x+12=36
Now solve the equation as normal. Begin by subtracting 12 from both sides to isolate the variable.
6x+12=36
-12 -12
---------------
6x = 24
Divide 6 on both sides to find x.
6x=24
---- -----
6 6
x=4
The solution to the equation is 4.
Answer:
If it's a rectangle, then point D is (3,-1)
The area would be 7 x 3 = 21 units²
