The area of a rectangle is 35x4y10 square feet. If the length of the rectangle is 7x2y5 feet, which expression represents the width of the rectangle?

Respuesta :

Answer: [tex]5x^2y^5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Area of rectangle = [tex]35x^4y^{10}[/tex] square feet

Length of rectangle= [tex]7x^2y^5[/tex]

We know that,

Width of rectangle = [tex]\dfrac{\text{Area of rectangle}}{\text{Length}}[/tex]

Then,

Expression of width= [tex]\dfrac{35x^4y^{10}}{7x^2y^5}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{5x^{4-2}y^{10-5}}{1}\ \ \ \ [\frac{x^m}{x^n}=x^{m=n}]\\\\=5x^2y^5[/tex]

Hence, the expression for width of the rectangle = [tex]5x^2y^5[/tex]
