Answer:
29.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of line D is also -4 because the lines are perpendicular.
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B
Step by Step explanation:
So since the equation says that 8 is less than the square root for b, It is correct because the square root of 72 would be 8.48528137424. Which of course 8, is less than that. But it also says that the square root of 72 is less than 9. Which based on my calculations would be correct.
Area of a rectangle is length x width.
Let the width = x
The length would be x +7. ( 7 inches longer than the width)
Area = 20
Set up the formula:
20 = x * x+7
Simplify the right side:
20 = x^2 + 7x
Subtract 29 from both sides:
X^2 + 7x -20 = 0
Solve using the quadratic equation
X = -b + sqrt(b^2 -4ac) / 2a
X = -7 + sqrt(7^2-4(1)(-20) / 2(1) (exact answer)
X = 2.178908 ( as a decimal)
The width is 2.178907 inches (round as needed)
The length would be 9.178907 inches ( round as needed.)
Depending on how you round, when you multiply them together you get approximately 20 square inches.
