Answer:

Length = 22 cm

Width = 4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = 88 cm²

Length = x + 7

Width = x - 11

Area of rectangle = length*width

Therefore:

(x + 7)(x - 11) = 88

x(x - 11) +7(x - 11) = 88

x² - 11x + 7x - 77 = 88

Add like terms

x² - 4x - 77 = 88

x² - 4x - 77 - 88 = 88 - 88

x² - 4x - 165 = 0

Factorize

x² - 15x + 11x - 165 = 0

x(x - 15) +11(x - 15) = 0

(x + 11)(x - 15) = 0

x = -11 or x = 15

Let's use the positive number.

Therefore:

Length = x + 7

Plug in the value of x

Length = 15 + 7 = 22 cm

Width = x - 11 = 15 - 11 = 4 cm

Rationalize the denominator of the given expression
Grace [21]

You multiply top and bottom of the fraction by the conjugate of 5 - √2  which is 5 + √2.   This produces a rational denominator:-

=    √7 ( 5 + √2)  /   (5 - √2)(5 + √2)

=  √7 ( 5 + √2) /   (25 -2)

=   (√7 ( 5 + √2)) / 23    answer

Start at the origin. Move 2 units right and 8 units up. What is the ordered pair for this point? pls help ASAP​
Digiron [165]

Answer: (2,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The origin is the point (0,0), so when you move two units right you land on the x-value of 2. From there you then add 8 units, putting you at the y-value of 8. Therefore, you end with the point (2,8) after this translation.
