Answer:

D.    x = 12, solution is not extraneous

Step-by-step explanation:

-4√(x - 3) = -12

Divide both sides by -4

√(x - 3) = 3

Square both sides

x - 3 = 9

add 3 to both sides

x = 12

To see if it's extraneous plug into original problem

-4√(12 - 3) = -12

-4√(9) = -12

-4 * 3 = -12

-12 = -12

not extraneous

Answer:

<em>l</em> = 1 5/16

w = 1/16

A = 21/16 x 1/16 = 21/256

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 11/4

<em>l</em> = length

w = <em>l</em> - 5/4

2<em>l</em> + 2(<em>l</em> - 5/4) = 11/4

2<em>l</em> + 2<em>l</em> - -5/2 = 1/4

multiply each side by 4

8<em>l</em> + 8<em>l </em>- 10 = 11<em> </em>

16<em>l</em> = 21

<em>l</em> = 21/16 or 1 5/16

width = 21/16 - 20/16 = 1/16
