Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

l = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter of a rectangle is

P =2(l+w)

The width is x-6

w = x-6

The length is 8 units longer than the width

l = w+8

l = x-6+8

l = x+2

We can substitute this into the equation for Perimeter, which is given as 40

40 = 2(x+2 + x-6)

Combine like terms

40 =2 (2x-4)

Divide by 2

40/2 = 2/2 (2x-4)

20 = 2x-4

Add 4 to each side

20+4 =2x-4+4

24 = 2x

Divide by 2

24/2 =2x/2

12=x

We want to know the length

l = x+2

l =12+2

l = 14

Step 1

Given;

$9x^2+16=0$

Required: To solve the equation.

Step 2

Solve the equation

$\begin{gathered} 9x^2+16-16=0-16 \\ 9x^2=-16 \\ \frac{9x^2}{9}=\frac{-16}{9} \\ x^2=-\frac{16}{9} \\ \sqrt{x^2}=\pm\sqrt{\frac{-16}{9}} \\ x=\sqrt{-\frac{16}{9}},\:x=-\sqrt{-\frac{16}{9}} \\ x=i\frac{4}{3},\:x=-i\frac{4}{3} \end{gathered}$

Answer;

$x=\frac{4}{3}i,\text{ -}\frac{4}{3}i$

Answer:

$BC = 15.01$

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle A is given.

For angle A, BC is the opposite leg.

For angle A, AC is the adjacent leg.

The trig ratio that relates the opposite leg to the adjacent leg is the tangent.

In general, for angle X,

$\tan X = \dfrac{opp}{adj}$

In our problem,

$\tan A = \dfrac{BC}{AC}$

$\tan 65^\circ = \dfrac{BC}{7}$

$BC = 7 \tan 65^\circ$

$BC = 15.01$
