Answer:
x² - 20 = 0
Using the quadratic formula

a = 1 b = 0 c = -20
So we have

Answer:
A and E
Step-by-step explanation:
-3(x - y) = -3x + 3y = 3y - 3x
A. E
Answer:
let dimention of original garden be x
then (x-8)(x-5) = 180
x^2 -13x -140 = 0
(x-20)(x+7)=0
x= 20 or x = -7
x = 20
original area = (20)^2
= 400 m^2
2(3x+4y) = 2(24)
6x+8y = 48
Add both the equations
6x + 8y = 48
+ x - 8y = -20
—————————
7x = 28
x = 28/7
x = 4
Plug in this value in the second equation
(4) - 8y = -20
-8y = -24
y = -24/-8
y = 3
Therefore:
x = 4
y = 3
