X(x + 2) = 120sq units
<span>Set it equal to 0 </span>
<span>x^2 + 2x - 120 = 0 </span>
<span>factor </span>
<span>(x + 12)(x - 10) </span>
<span>For the shorter side: </span>
<span>x - 10 = 0 </span>
<span>x = 10 </span>
<span>Now that you have x, solve for the longer side which we said was represented by </span>
<span>x + 2 </span>
<span>10 + 2 = 12 </span>
<span>Proof </span>
<span>A = L x W </span>
<span>120 = 10 x 12 </span>
<span>120 = 120 </span>
<span>true </span>
<span>Our length is 12 and our width is 10</span>
Answer: x=20
all angles in the triangle are 180 degree, so:
2x+3x+4x=180
9x=180
divide both sides by 9
x= 20
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Theoretically, there is not square root of neither 13 nor a negative number so the special symbol is used to represent the square root of a number.
The point of elimination is to have one variable so example
3x + 2y = 4
7X + 3y = 5
1) Try to find a way to have one variable
7(3x + 2y = 4) ----> 21x + 14y = 28
-3(7x+ 3y = 5) -----> -21x -9y = -15
2) add
0 + 5y = 13
3) solve for the last variable
5y = 13
y = 13/5 = 2 3/5 = 2.8
4) Subsitute the variable to get the other one
3x + 2(2.8) = 4
3x + 5.6 = 4
3x = -1.6
x = 0.533333333 (continue)
The intersection would be 0.53 with a line above the 3 and 2.8. (0.5333 , 2.8)
Hope you understand!!

Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
y = 2x + 3
y = x + 2
<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>
<em>Substitution</em>
- Substitute in <em>y</em>: 2x + 3 = x + 2
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract <em>x</em> on both sides: x + 3 = 2
- [Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 3 on both sides: x = -1
<u>Step 3: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
- Substitute in <em>x</em> [Original Equation]: y = -1 + 2
- Add: y = 1
