Length = 13 = (x + 3)
Width = 14 = (x + 4)
x2 + 7x + 12 = area of the rectangle
can be factored into
(x + 3)(x + 4)
Let L = one of the factors (x + 3)
Let W = the other factor (x + 4)
If x = 10 then
(10 + 3) = 13 = L
(10 + 4) = 14 = W
Checking this can be checked a couple of ways
Plug x = 10 into the original equation
x2 + 7x + 12
102 + 7(10) 12 = 100 + 70 + 12 = 182 = Area
Multiplty the factors
L x W = 13 x 14 = 182 = Area

The answer is x1= 0, x2= 6
Answer: No, your friend is not correct. You cannot use a similarity transformation to turn a square into a rectangle. Here's why:
1) If you used a similarity transformation, the size and position of the shape would change, but the shape itself remains the same.
2) Squares and rectangles are NOT similar.* Referring to the first point I listed, if the shapes are not similar, then a similarity transformation cannot be used to turn one shape into another.
<em>*Similar means that the edges are proportional to one another, such as a square with sides of 4 meters vs a square with sides of 2 meters: the sides are different lengths, but the shape is the same.</em>

The reciprocal of 6/5 is D. 5/6
Reciprocal simply means swapping the position of the numbers in the fraction. The numerator becomes the denominator and the denominator becomes the numerator.
We need to get reciprocal of a fraction when division is performed.
For example: 2 ÷ 1/5
2 may be a whole number but in fraction form it is 2/1.
1st fraction = 2/1
2nd fraction = 1/5
In dividing fractions, the 1st step we need to do is to get the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.
1/5 ⇒ 5/1
Then, we multiply the 1st fraction to the reciprocal of the 2nd fraction.
2/1 * 5/1 = 10
So, 2 ÷ 1/5 = 10
Answer:
C. (1, -3)
Step-by-step explanation:
Plug in the x to get the y in the equation. The point must fit the formula.
Plug in C. (1, -3), in which x = 1, y = -3:
(-3) = 2(1) - 5
Simplify:
(-3) = 2(1) - 5
-3 = 2 - 5
-3 = -3 (True).
C is your answer.
