The coordinate (5,-6) lies in the fourth coordinate, because the first is x positive y positive, the second is x negative and y positive, the third is x negative and y negative, and the fourth is x positive y negative. This is x positive y negative, so it is in the fourth quadrant.
Answer:
w = 7 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume = 252 cm³
Height, h = 3cm
Let width = w
Length, l = w + 5
Volume of rectangular prism, V = l * w * h
252 = (w + 5) * w * 3
252 = (w + 5) * 3w
252 = 3w² + 15w
3w² + 15w - 252 = 0
w² + 5w - 84 = 0
w² + 12w - 7w - 84 = 0
w(w + 12) - 7(w + 12) = 0
(w + 12) = 0 or (w - 7) = 0
w = - 12 or w = 7
w cannot be negative
Hence, w = 7 cm
If you're trying to get x your answer would be -21.
