Write an inequality that represents the missing dimension x
the area is greater than 12 square inches.
the picture is a rectangle with 2 inches on the top and x on the side

For this case we have that by definition, the area of a rectangle is given by:

Where:

a, b: They are the dimensions of the rectangle.

In the statement we are told that "The area is greater than 12 square inches", then:

Also we have:

Substituting we have:

Dividing between 2 on both sides:

Finally we have:

example 2 – simplify: step 1: completely factor both the numerators and denominators of all fractions. step 2: change the division sign to a multiplication sign and flip (or reciprocate) the fraction after the division sign; essential you need to multiply by the reciprocal. step 3 : cancel or reduce the fractions.

answer: c.  

step-by-step explanation:

mixtures containing substances that get attracted to magnet can be separated using a magnet. we can separate iron from a mixture of sand and iron, as only iron attracts to the magnet.
