Answer: I think the value is 44.
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of "x" is 5.
Given that,
A trapezium ABCD in which AB || CD such that
Now,
Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
I wil call the length l and the width w in the following. We are given these informations:
The area of the rectangle is 105. That means l * w = 105. (1)
The length is 16 inches longer that the width. That means l = w + 16. (2)
If we plug the information we get from (2) into the equation (1), we get:
(w + 16) * w = 105
Simplify and you get
w² + 16 w - 105 = 0
With the the quadratic formula we get the results w = 5 and w = -21. The negative result doesn't make sense for our task, we are only interested in positive length and width :).
If we now plug w = 5 back into our infromation (2), we get:
l = 5 + 16 = 21
(To confirm the result plug w = 5 and l = 21 into (1))
