The area of a rectangle is 90 ft2. If the rectangle is 9 feet long, what is its width?

10ft

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a rectangle, it is width✖️height.

Because the area and the height is given,

Area: 90ft^2

Height: 9ft.

to find the width, you need to divide 90/9=10

So, the width is 10ft.

To check just in case, you can multiply 10 ✖️9=90

Hope this helped, have a nice day!

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3

i agree because i see the other persons thinking is clear
