Answer:

8m ×3.5m

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle= length ×width

Let the length and width of the rectangle be L and W meters respectively.

Area of rectangle= LW

LW= 28 -----(1)

L= 2W +1 -----(2)

Subst. (2) into (1):

(2W +1)(W)= 28

<em>Expand:</em>

2W² +W= 28

<em>-28 on both sides:</em>

2W² +W -28= 0

<em>Factorise</em><em>:</em>

(W +4)(2W -7)= 0

W +4=0 or 2W -7=0

W= -4 (reject) or W= 3.5

Substitute W= 3.5 into (2):

L= 2(3.5) +1

L= 7 +1

L= 8

∴ The dimensions of the rectangle is 8m ×3.5m.

draw a rectangle around it:

the widest part is from about -3 to 2 which is 5 units wide

height is from 3 to -4, which is 7 units

5*7 = 35

the top and bottom are angled so you can subtract a little for that

 so I would estimate around 32 square units

The ratio is 6:18 and you are trying to find out what are blue. You divide 240 by 6 and get 40. You then multiply 40 x 18 and get 720.

What is the square root of -6.76
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

2.6i

Step-by-step explanation:

undo the - by making it:  √-6.76= √6.76 x  √-1

then,  √-1 would be converted to imaginary number -> i

now rewrite it as  √6.76 x i or i√6.76 which is the same as the squareroot of 6.76 which is 2.6 times i.

Then just write your final answer as 2.6i
