1. Regroup terms
x(x+5)=104
2. Expand
x^2+5x=104
3. Move all terms to one side
x^2+5x-104=0
4. Factor x^2+5x-104
(x-8)(x+13)=0
5. Solve for x
x=8 or x=-13
Since x<0 is not possible in this case, x=8
6. Finding the dimensions
We know that one side has to be x+5, and now that we know x:
8+5=13
13*8=104
The dimensions are 13 and 8, have a nice day :D
Answer:
m = 1, b = -5 y = x -5
Step-by-step explanation:
first find the slope or m
slope is change in y over change in x
-8 - (-6) = -2
-3 - (-1) = -2
-2/-2 = 1
m = 1
y = x + b
use one of the points and solve for b
372 is the answer.
(9*6*3)+(10*7*3)=372
4. First find how much sauce is used for 1 person:
2 ÷ 7 = 0.285714285714286
0.285714285714286cups of sauce will make spaghetti for one person.
0.285714285714286 • 210 = 60
60 cups of sauce for 210 people.
5. Found out how much he read in one minute:
40 ÷ 50 = 0.8
0.8 • 80 = 64
In 80 minutes, she will read 64 pages.
6. Found out how much he earns after one month:
9 ÷ 6 = 1.5
1.5 • 12 = 18
18 • 2 = 36
After two years, he will have 36 days of vacationing time
