A = l × w. Substitute 72 into A and fill in the rest of the equation.
w = l - 1. Plug l - 1 into w
72 = l × (l - 1). Multiply l by (l - 1)
72 = l^2 - l. Subtract 72 from each side.
0 = l^2 - l - 72. Factor.
0 = (l + 8) (l - 9). Set each term equal to zero.
(l + 8) = 0. Subtract 8 from each side.
l = -8. Length cant be a negative number so let's try the other term.
(l - 9) = 0. Add 9 to each side.
l = 9. The length is 9.
Earlier we stated that the width is one less than the length, therefore, the width is 9 - 1 = 8.
The width is 8 units.
Answer:
No real solutions.
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 6x + 10 = 0
a = 1
b = 6
c = 10
D = b² - 4ac = 6² - 4*1*10 = 36 - 40 = - 4
- 4 < 0,
so this equation has no real solutions.
Answer:
Quadratic function
linear function
cubic function
Step-by-step explanation:
C
6*3=18
6*8= 48 and 3*8=24
24*48= 1152
1152/18=64
