The length of a rectangle is (x+5) and the width is (x+2). the area of the rectangle is 70 square feet. what is the length of the rectangle?

The length of the rectangle is 30 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the equation for area is length times width, you would have to set the two equations to seventy and multiply them.

    (x+5) (x+2) = 70

    2x + 10 = 70

Then, you would have to subtract ten from both sides, cancelling it from the left side.

    2x = 60

Then do the opposite and divide sixty by two, therefore getting a length of thirty feet.

y = 3x+4

step-by-step explanation:

to find the slope

slope = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (-8-4)/ (-4-0)

    = -12/-4

  = 3

using the slope intercept form of a line

y= mx+b

we know the slope is 3

we know the y intercept is 4 ( the point where it crosses the y axis or x=0)

y = 3x+4
