Answer: Width = 3cm

Length = 8cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Length = x+5 cm

Width = xcm

Area = 24cm²

Area of a rectangle = length × width

x × (x + 5) = 24

x² + 5x = 24

x² + 5x - 24 = 0

x² + 8x - 3x - 24 = 0

x(x + 8) - 3(x + 8) = 0

x - 3 = 0

x = 3

Width = 3cm

Since length = x + 5 = 3 + 5 = 8cm

Length = 8cm

Simplify the expression
Tasya [4]

Nice job inputting the expression.

The cube root is a 1/3 power. The 4 in the denominator is a -4 power in the numerator.   When we have powers of powers we multiply them all together.  When we have a product to a power we have to raise each factor to the power.

We get to choose whether we want a fraction at the end or negative exponents.  Because of the constant 16 in the denominator I chose fraction.

\dfrac{1}{( \sqrt[3]{8p^6})^4} = ( \sqrt[3]{8p^6})^{-4} = ( (8p^6)^{\frac 1 3})^{-4} =(8^{\frac 1 3})^{-4} p^{(6(-4)/3)} = 2^{-4} p^{-8} = \dfrac{1}{16p^8}

Answer: 1/(16p⁸)

iragen [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.  490 units ²

Area of cuboid = 2(lb + bh + lh)

From the figure we can see that a rectangular prism.

<u>To find the surface area of prism</u>

Here l = 14 units

b = 7 units and h = 7 units

Surface area = 2((14 * 7) + (7 * 7) + (14 * 7))

= 490 units ²
