(f+g-k)(x) means to add the equations f(x) and g(x) then subtract k(x)
2x^2 + 3x + 4x - 9 = 2x^2 +7x -9
2x^2 + 7x - 9 - x^2 -7x = x^2 -9
The answer is : x^2 - 9
In step 2 .. because when you multiple by -4 in step 1 , the equation in step 2 will be ( -4y =-16 + 8z)
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>
