Area of a rectangle: A= Length*width
(2x+1)(x+2)=77
2x^2+4x+x+2=77
2x^2+5x+2=77
2x^2+5x-75=0
(x-5)(2x+15)=0
x=5 or x=-7.5
Length cannot be negative, so x=5 only
the length is 11, the width is 7
Next, let's look at the triangle.
Area of a triangle: A=1/2 of base*height
(1/2)(2x+2)(x+3)=35
2x^2+8x+6=70
2x^2+8x-64=0
x^2+4x-32=0
(x-4)(x+8)=0
x=4
the base is 10, the height is 7

Solve the equation by using the quadratic formula.<br> 8x2 – 2x - 15 =0
ddd [48]

Answer:

x = 3/2 or x = -5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

8 x^2 - 2 x - 15 = 0

Using the quadratic formula, solve for x.

x = (2 ± sqrt((-2)^2 - 4×8 (-15)))/(2×8) = (2 ± sqrt(4 + 480))/16 = (2 ± sqrt(484))/16:

x = (2 + sqrt(484))/16 or x = (2 - sqrt(484))/16

Simplify radicals.

sqrt(484) = sqrt(4×121) = sqrt(2^2×11^2) = 2×11 = 22:

x = (2 + 22)/16 or x = (2 - 22)/16

Evaluate (2 + 22)/16.

(2 + 22)/16 = 24/16 = 3/2:

x = 3/2 or x = (2 - 22)/16

Evaluate (2 - 22)/16.

(2 - 22)/16 = -20/16 = -5/4:

Answer: x = 3/2 or x = -5/4
