Cross multiply:
2*? = 5*6
⇒ ?= 5*6/2= 15

A rectangle has a legnth of 12 inches less than 6 times its width. If the area of the rectangle is 3744 square inches, find the
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Length = 6x - 12

Width = x

Area of a rectangle:

A = length x width

3744 = (x)(6x - 12)

3744 = 6x^2 - 12x

6x^2 - 12x - 3744 = 0

Use the quadratic equation to solve for x. The two solutions end up being 26 and -24. Since length is a scalar measurement, it can only be positive. Thus, the value of x is equal to 26 inches.

Width = 26 inches

Length = 6(26) - 12 = 144 inches

Hope this helps!! :)

X^2 + 5x - 24 = 0 How do I solve by factoring
tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

x = -8 or x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor ax² + bx + c, use AC method.

a times c is 1 × -24 = -24.

Factors of ac (-24) that add up to b (5) are 8 and -3.

Divide by a and reduce: 8/1 and -3/1.

Therefore, the factors are x + 8 and x − 3.

x² + 5x − 24 = 0

(x + 8) (x − 3) = 0

x = -8 or 3
