Answer:

The width cannot be negative, so w = 9, l = 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

w = the width

l = w +7

A = l · w

A= w ( w + 7 )

144 = w2 + 7w

0 = w2 + 7w - 144

0 = ( w - 9 )( w + 16 )

The width cannot be negative, so w = 9, l = 16.

What is the value of x?<br> 4x − 6 = 18
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]
You need to get rid of -6 by adding 6, you also need to add 6 to 18.

4x = 24

Now you need to get rid of the 4 attached to the variable, you do this by dividing 4 since it is multiplying, also dividing 4 and 24

x = 6

So the value of x is 6

Hope this helps! :)
