Answer:

  13.3 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d represent the length of the diagonal. Then the length of the rectangle is (d-2) and the width is (d-6). The area is the product of length and width, so is ...

  A = LW

  83 = (d -2)(d -6) = d² -8d +12

  71 = d² -8d . . . . . . . . subtract 12 to get the constant out of the way

  d² -8d +16 = 87 . . . . add (-8/2)² = 16 to both sides to complete the square

  (d -4)² = 87 . . . . . . . write as a square

  d -4 = √87 . . . . . . . positive square root

  d = 4 +√87 ≈ 13.3 . . . . add 4

The diagonal is about 13.3 meters long.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

If you check to see if the side lengths actually correspond to those of a rectangle, you find that they do not. <em>The geometry described here is impossible</em>. The rectangle with the proposed relations between sides and diagonal would have a diagonal of about 12.899 m and an area of about 75.19 m².

9. What's the least common multiple (LCM) of 2, 6, and 8?
algol [13]

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

The LCM or least common multiple of these numbers is 24

To get 24, you list all the multiple of these numbers until they all share at least one

So

2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, <u>24</u>

6, 12, 18, <u>24</u>

8, 16, <u>24</u>

They all share 24 so this is the LCM

Hope this helps
