The value of x that is the length from the edge of the screen to the end of the wall is equal 3. This is derived from an equation which serves as a function of the Area. See the solution below.
<h3>
What is the calculation for the solution above?</h3>
Recall that the area of the entire wall is 40m².
(10-2x) (16- 2x) = 40
Expanding the brackets, we have
160-20x-32x + 4x² = 40
4x² - 52x + 120 = 0
x² - 13x +30 = 0
Using the quadratic equation
x = (-b±√b²-4ac)/2a
Where a = 1
b = 13
c = 30
x = (13 ± 7)/2
Thus x = 10; or x = 3.
x cannot be the answer because it invalidates 16-x<0;
Hence, the correct answer is x = 3

95° because the angle is mirrored with the other side
We can use y2-y1/x2-x1 to find the slope. Therefore, we have:
-5-(-13)/8-(-4). That gives us -5+13/8+4, or 8/12 = 2/3.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
x(x-5)(x-8)
or
x=5
x=8
Step-by-step explanation:
x(x^2-13x+40)
x(x-5) (x-8)
I would recommend "Introduction to Linear Algebra," by Gilbert Strang. It is a compact but very helpful textbook reference written by a well-known MIT professor. There is a corresponding online MIT course that is free, so that's a bonus. I am currently using it to study linear algebra with no class or previous experience, and I think it does a solid job of explaining things. Each section in the book has a set of questions for you to work through, and answers to selected questions appear in an appendix at the end of the book.
Hope this helps!
