The length of a rectangle has a measure of x and the width of a rectangle has a measure of (x-2). Find x if the area is 35.

Respuesta :

Answer:

length = 7

pls mark me the brainliest

Step-by-step explanation:

A = Lw

35 = x (x -2)

35 = x2 - 2x

x2 -2x -35 = 0

(x-7)(x+5) = 0  

x-7=0

x=7       (we won't use the other factor since it would give us a negative length

so length = 7
