Answer:

l = 11.19 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The width of a roll of gasket material, b= 16 inches

We need to find the length needed to obtain 15 sq ft of the material.

We know that,

1 foot = 12 inches

⇒ 16 inhces = 1.34 feet

For a rectangular shaped object, area is given by :

A = l×b

l=\dfrac{A}{b}\\\\l=\dfrac{15}{1.34}\\\\=11.19\ ft

So, the required length is 11.19 feet.

This  situation is represented  in annex. 
From Pythagorean theorem you've got equation:
x^2+(x+5)^2=25 \\ \\ \hbox{From formula} \ \ \ (a+b)^2 = a^2+2ab+b^2: \\ \\ x^2+x^2+10x+25=25 \\ 2x^2+10x=0 \\ \\ \hbox{Factor out} \ \ 2x: \\ 2x(x+5)=0 \\ \\ \hbox{So you've got:} \\ \\ x_1=0 \\ x_2=-5

There isn't any solutions where x>0, so this situation is IMPOSSIBLE.

Answer:

11.18\ \text{units}

10.3^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

w=

z=

z is subtracted from w so

w-z=\\\Rightarrow w-z=

Magnitude is given by

\sqrt{(-11)^2+(-2)^2}=5\sqrt{5}=11.18

The magnitude of the resulting vector is approximately 11.18\ \text{units}.

The angle is

\theta=\tan^{-1}\dfrac{-2}{-11}\\\Rightarrow \theta=10.3^{\circ}

The direction is approximately 10.3^{\circ}
