X= width
length= 3x-7
Area: (x)(3x-7)=40
= 3x^2-7x=40
= 3x^2-7x-40=0
Factorise the equation: (3x+8)(x-5)=0
x=-8/3 (reject because width cannot be negative) or x=5
so width is 5cm and length is 3(5)-7= 8cm !

A field has a length of 12 m and a diagonal of 13 m what is the width?
kvv77 [185]
Do Pythagorean Theorem because a rectangle divided in diagonals form right triangles
A^2+b^2=C^2
Plug in the correct numbers and solve
A and B can be switched around but C is always the longest diagonal side which is called the hypotenuse not the Adjacent sides that form a right angle
So with correct solving you should get 5.

Will somebody please assist me what is 7x3x2+5-3=k
Svetllana [295]
In this case just do it left to right, as multiplication comes before addition/subtraction. So 7x3x2+5-3=21x2+5-3=42+5-3=47-3=44=k.
