Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width=x

Length =6x-4

As we know that in a rectangle

{\boxed{\sf Area=LB}}

  • Substitute the values

\hookrightarrow\sf x (6x-4)=20

\hookrightarrow\sf 6x^2-4x=20

\hookrightarrow\sf 6x^2-4x-20=0

  • Here a=6, b=-4, c=-20.
  • use quadratic formula

\hookrightarrow\sf x=\dfrac {1}{3}+\dfrac {1}{3}\sqrt {31} \quad or \quad \dfrac {1}{3}+\dfrac {-1}{3}\sqrt {31}

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The output H is 20 when the input, x, is -18

Step-by-step explanation:

H= 17 + x/6

When the input, x, is -18 then the output H will be:

H= 17 + 18/6

H= 17 + 3

H = 20

Answer: The output H is 20 when the input, x, is -18

Dylan has a square piece of metal that measures 10 inches on each side. he cuts the metal along the diagonal, forming two right
Artemon [7]
You need to use the Pythagorean theory. a² + b² = c². So you would end up with 10²+10²=c². So, 10²=100, therefore you would end up with 200=c². In order to find the length of the hypotenuse, you need to find C. To do this, you need to undo the square and find the square root of 200 and C. So, you would get √200=√c² which would equal 14.1 inches. Then, if needed to check the answer, plug the 10,10,and 14.1 back into the a²+b²=c² and it should make the statement true.
