The length of a rectangle is seven times its width. The area of the rectangle is 175 square centimeters. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a rectangle = l × w

where

l is the length

w is the width

The length is seven times the width is written as

l = 7w

Area of the rectangle = 175 cm²

7w × w = 175

7w² = 175

Divide both sides by 7

w² = 25

Find the square root of both sides

w = √25

w = 5cm

But l = 7w

l = 7(5)

l = 35cm

The length is 35cm

The width is 5cm

Hope this helps you.

you didn't post any answer choices, so its not 100% clear what your teacher is looking for

however, log(15/7) is equivalent to log(15) - log(7)

i'm using the rule log(x/y) = log(x) - log(y)

the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

the root or roots of a polynomial are the values of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to 0. we can find the roots of a polynomial making the expression equal to 0 and then, isolating the variable (it it has just one variable).

for example, given the following polynomial:

the root or zero of the polynomial, can be found by making the expression equal to 0, and then, isolating the variable, so, finding the root we have:

therefore, we have that the root of the polynomial is equal to 2.

we must remember that the number of roots that a polynomial can have, will depend on the degree of the polynomial, a first degree polynomial have will have one single root, a second degree polynomial (quadratic expression) may have two roots and so.

hence the correct option is:

b. a value of the variable that makes the polynomial equal to zero.

have a nice day!
