Hello,
We know that th formula for the area of a rectangle is:

Now, the problem in this excercise is that there is no restriction on the values that b and h can take, so, they can take any value provided that it meets:
for example:

But if they can only take intenger values, what we have to do is to descompose 12, and then we can analyze the possible solutions.
12 | 2
6 | 2
3 | 3
1
12= 2 *2*3
first option:
12=4*3
Answer: lenght= 4cm and width= 3cm or vice versasecond option:
12=2*6
Answer: lenght= 6cm and width= 2cm <span>
or vice versa</span>
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
From table 1,
f(x) = bˣ
For x = -1,
f(-1) = 0.5
0.5 = (b)⁻¹
b =
b = 2
For x = 1.585,
f(1.585) = 3
3 = 
3 = 


For x = 2.585,
f(2.585) = 
= 
= 4 × 1.5 [Since,
]
= 6
From table 2,
g(x) = 
For x = 0.5,
g(0.5) = -1
-1 = 
b⁻¹ = 0.5
b = 2
For x = 2,
g(2) = 1
1 = 
For x = 6,
g(6) = 2.585
2.585 = 
2.585 = 
2.585 = 
2.858 - 1 = 

For x = 3,
g(3) = 
g(3) = 1.585
Your answer is going to be 26 and 14, because 26+14=40, and 26-14=12.:)
