Answer:

The length of a rectangle is 7 inches longer than it is wide. If the area is 170 square inches, what are the dimensions of the rectangle?

Answer by Cromlix(4381)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

x = width x + 7 = length

x(x+7) = 170

x^2 + 7x - 170 = 0

(x + 17)( x - 10)

Therefore x = 10 as x = -17 no answer.

Width = 10 inches

Length = 17 inches

Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A square tabletop has side lengths of (4x − 8) units. Enter a polynomial that represents the area of the tab
kherson [118]

Answer: 16x^{2}-64x+64

Step-by-step explanation:

1. The formula for calculate th area of a square is shown below:

A=s^{2}

Where s is the side of the square.

2. Therefore, if the square tabletop has side lengths of (4x-8) units you have:

(4x-8)^{2}

3. By definition, the square of a binomial is always a trinomial:

(a-b)^{2}=a^{2}-2ab+b^{2}

4. Then, you obtain:

(4x-8)^{2}=(4x)^{2}-2(4x)(-8)+8^{2}=16x^{2}-64x+64
