the width of a rectangle is the length minus 2 units. The area of the rectangle is48 units. What is the width, in units, of the rectangle?

6

Step-by-step explanation:

put unknown as y

area of rectangle = width × long

y(y - 2)=48

y² -2y =48

u can use scientific calculator to find this

y²-2y-48=0

(y-8)(y+6)=0

y=8 y=-6

take the positive value and ignore the negative value

width=y-2 long=8

8-2=6

I hope this help you :)

85.3-64 = 21.3

so laura has already added 85.3 grams of chocolate powder and she has gone over the amount specified in the recipe by 21.3 grams

hope i ! have a great  day!
