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

5x+4=-41 <br> answer? <br> explain!!
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 4 = -41   Your goal is to get x alone on on side

     - 4    - 4   Subtract 4 from both sides to get 5x alone

5x = -45  Now you need to divide to get what x equals

\frac{5x}{5} = \frac{-45}{5}  Divide by 5 to get x

x = -9

Which expression is the simplest form of 3(2x + y) + 4(x - 4y) + x2?
g100num [7]

Answer:

x^2 +  10x - 13y.

Step-by-step explanation:

3(2x + y) + 4(x - 4y) + x^2   First apply the Distributive law to the parentheses:

= 6x + 3y + 4x - 16y + x^2  Now add like terms:

= 10x - 13y + x^2.
