The answer should have been 8.6 that was wrong but it is okay you were close
Answer:
L = (x - 2) meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the rectangle = (x² - 7x + 10) m²
The width = (x - 5) m
length = ?
Area of a rectangle = length × width
x² - 7x + 10 = L(x -5)
note L = length
divide both sides by (x-5)
(x² - 7x + 10)/(x - 5) = L
L = x² - 7x + 10 / (x -5)
Factorize x² - 7x + 10
find the numbers you can multiply to give you 10 and also add to give you -7
The numbers are -2 and -5. Therefore,
x² - 2x - 5x + 10 = 0
x(x - 2) - 5(x - 2) = 0
(x-5)(x-2) = 0
Let us go back to our division
L = x² - 7x + 10 / (x -5)
x² - 7x + 10 = (x-5)(x-2)
L = (x-5)(x-2) / (x -5)
L = (x - 2) meters

Answer:
50 increased by 30% is 65
Step-by-step explanation:
'Percent (%)' means 'out of one hundred':
p% = p 'out of one hundred',
p% is read p 'percent',
p% = p/100 = p ÷ 100.
30% = 30/100 = 30 ÷ 100 = 0.3.
100% = 100/100 = 100 ÷ 100 = 1.
Percentage increase = 30% × 50
New value = 50 + Percentage increase
Calculate
New value =
50 + Percentage increase =
50 + (30% × 50) =
50 + 30% × 50 =
(1 + 30%) × 50 =
(100% + 30%) × 50 =
130% × 50 =
130 ÷ 100 × 50 =
130 × 50 ÷ 100 =
6,500 ÷ 100 =
65
Or just find 30% of 50 (15) and add that
