The width of a rectangle is the length minus 4 units. The area of the rectangle is 12 units. What is the width in units of the rectangle

width = 2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

If the length of a rectangle is (x) units, then that means that the width of a rectangle is x - 4 units.

the area of a rectangle is length * width

so just substitute the values that we have now.

x (length) * (x-4) width = 12 (area of rectangle)

so that gives us

x^2 - 4x =12

subtract 12 from both sides

x^2 - 4x - 12 =0

now factor this equation

x^2 + 2x - 6x -12 = 0

x(x+2) - 6(x+2) = 0

(x-6)(x+2) = 0

x = 6, or x = -2 REMEMBER THAT VALUE OF x = LENGTH, IT CANNOT BE NEGATIVE AS YOU CANT HAVE NEGATIVE VALUE OF A SIDE

length = 6, and width = 6 -4 = 2

step-by-step explanation:

20% of 120 is 24. if you subtract 24 from 120 you get 96

answer:   14
