Answer:

the dimensions of the rectangle are 10 and 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

area of the rectangle, A = 70 m²

dimensions of the rectangle, = x - 11 and x - 8

The area of rectangle is calculated as;

A = L x B

70 = (x - 11)(x - 8)

70 = x² - 8x - 11x + 88

0 = x² - 8x - 11x + 88 - 70

0 = x² - 19x + 18

0 = x² - x - 18x + 18

0 = x(x - 1) -18(x - 1)

0 = (x - 18)(x - 1)

0 = x - 18     or    

0 = x - 1

x = 18 or 1

The dimensions of the rectangle are calculated as;

L = 18 - 11  = 7

B = 18 - 8 = 10

Therefore, the dimensions of the rectangle are 10 and 7.

Natali [406]
<span><u><em>The correct answer is: </em></u>
green and blue.

<u><em>Explanation</em></u><span><u><em>: </em></u>
We want to see which fractions </span></span>\frac{3}{4} is a multiple of. We know that \frac{3}{4} is a multiple of \frac{1}{4}, because \frac{1}{4}*3=\frac{3}{4}.

We can divide fractions to determine if \frac{3}{4} is a multiple of \frac{1}{2}:
\frac{ \frac{3}{4}}{ \frac{1}{2}};

in order to divide fractions, flip the second one and multiply:
\frac{3}{4})*\frac{2}{1}=\frac{6}{4}=1 \frac{1}{2}.
This did not divide evenly, so \frac{3}{4} is not a multiple of 1/2.

Checking to see if \frac{3}{4} is a multiple of \frac{1}{8}, \frac{ \frac{3}{4}}{ \frac{1}{8}};

flip the second one and multiply:
\frac{3}{4}*\frac{8}{1}=\frac{24}{4}=6.
This divided evenly, so \frac{3}{4} is a multiple of \frac{1}{8}.
