Answer:

In math students think that the function just removes negative signs, and actually that is basically what happens...

BUT !!! the definition that you want is that absolute value is a measure of how far (distance) you are from ZERO.... and note that distances are not negative...

If you run out of gas one mile in front of behind a gas station, you have to travel "one mile" you don't walk "negative one mile"...

forward one mile or backward one mile are both "one mile" just in different directions

Answer:

Length of rectangle = 16 cm

Width of rectangle = 4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Area of rectangle = 64 cm²

Find:

Length and width

Computation:

Assume;

Length of rectangle = a

So,

Width of rectangle = a -12

Area of rectangle = l x b

So,

a(a-12) = 64

a² - 12a - 64 = 0

a² - (16-4)a - 64 = 0

a² - 16a+ 4a - 64 = 0

a (a-16) + 4(a-16)= 0

(a-16)(a+4) = 0

a= 16 , a = -4

So,

Length of rectangle = 16 cm

Width of rectangle = a -12

Width of rectangle = 16 -12

Width of rectangle = 4 cm
