Refer to the diagram shown below.
BE = 2x² - x
DE = x² + 6

The intersecting diagonals bisect one another.
Therefore BE = DE, so that
2x² - x = x² + 6
x² - x - 6 = 0
Factorize.
(x + 2)(x - 3) = 0
x = -2, or x = 3.

When x = -2,
BE = 2(-2)² - (-2) = 10
DE = (-2)² + 6 = 10
Therefore BD = 20

When x = 3;
BE = 2(3²) - 3 = 15
DE = 3² + 6 = 15
Therefore BD = 30

Answer: Either 20 or 30.

Answer:

The formula for area is length times width.

it's 8m long, and 6m wide. When we multiply it, we get 48m that is for one side of the cube, so we count how many sides there is. There's 6, so we multiply 6 times 48 and the complete surface area for the whole cube is 288m
