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:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
This all comes down to the substitution. I am assuming that (4x2) is meant to be 4x^2 so I will solve as that.
4(-2)^2 = 4(4) = 16
4(-2) = - 8
-2(3)^2 = -2(9) = -18
3(3) = 9
16-8-18+9= -1
Answer:
x = 2.5 or 7.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 3/4.
|5 -x| = 10/4 = 2.5
This resolves to two equations:
- 5 -x = 2.5 ⇒ x = 5 -2.5 = 2.5
- 5 -x = -2.5 ⇒ x = 5 +2.5 = 7.5
The solutions are x = 2.5 or 7.5.
15% = 0.15
234.00 x 0.15 = 35.10
234.00 - 35.10 = 198.90
The camera will cost $198.90 after the discount.
