If the length= v
Then the width=v-2

Area= length x width
48= v(v-2)
48= v^2 -2v
v^2 -2v -48=0
(v-8)(v+6)=0
then v= 8 and v=-6
Since length cannot be negative so v=8
And width=v-2
= 8-2=6

So length= 8 m
Width= 6 m

Solve x – 7 > –8.
IgorC [24]
Question 1.

x - 7 > - 8

Adding 7 to both sides, we get:

x - 7 + 7 > - 8 + 7

x > -1

Thus the answer to the inequality is option Fourth.

Question 2.

A number exceeds 66. Let that number be x. The number exceeds 66 means that the number is larger than 66. So in form of an expression we can write the inequality as:

x is greater than 66

x > 66

So, option 1st gives the correct answer.


Question 3.

The tiles are square shaped and area of a square can be calculated as the square of its Length.

Area of square = (Length)²

If we are given the Area, we can find the length as:

Length = \sqrt{Area}

For Tile A, the length will be:

Length= \sqrt{9}=3  
So length is a Rational number

For Tile B, the length will be:

Length= \sqrt{25}=5  
So length is a Rational number

For Tile C, the length will be:

Length= \sqrt{34}  
So, Length is not Rational.

For Tile D, the length will be:

Length= \sqrt{76}  
Length is not Rational

Thus, the lengths of Tile A and Tile B are rational only.

Therefore, the correct answer is 1st option

The correct option is (A)

<h3>What is Trigonometry?</h3>

Trigonometry is a branch of mathematics that studies relationships between the sides and angles of triangles.

In triangle having angle 60.

sin 60 = P/ 7√3

√3/2= P/7√3

2P= 21

P= 21/2

Now again

cos 45= 21/2/x

1/√2 = 10.5/x

x=  21√2/2

Mariana [72]
The blanks should be:
<span>2 halves
</span><span>7 halves
</span><span>7 friends

This is because 3 and 1/2 is the same as the improper fraction of 7/2. </span>

Answer:

Length of rectangle = 16 cm

Width of rectangle = 4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Area of rectangle = 64 cm²

Find:

Length and width

Computation:

Assume;

Length of rectangle = a

So,

Width of rectangle = a -12

Area of rectangle = l x b

So,

a(a-12) = 64

a² - 12a - 64 = 0

a² - (16-4)a - 64 = 0

a² - 16a+ 4a - 64 = 0

a (a-16) + 4(a-16)= 0

(a-16)(a+4) = 0

a= 16 , a = -4

So,

Length of rectangle = 16 cm

Width of rectangle = a -12

Width of rectangle = 16 -12

Width of rectangle = 4 cm
