Answer:

<h2>x = -2 or x = 5</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The quadratic formula of a quadratic equation

ax^2+bx+c=0\\\\\text{If}\ b^2-4ac>0\ \text{then the equation has two solutions}\ x=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

\text{If}\ b^2-4ac=0\ \text{then the equation has one solution}\ x=\dfrac{-b}{2a}

\text{If}\ b^2-4ac

We have:

x^2-3x-10=0\to a=1,\ b=-3,\ c=-10\\\\b^2-4ac=(-3)^2-4(1)(-10)=9+40=49>0\\\\x=\dfrac{-(-3)\pm\sqrt{49}}{2(1)}=\dfrac{3\pm7}{2}\\\\x=\dfrac{3-7}{2}=\dfrac{-4}{2}=-2\\or\\x=\dfrac{3+7}{2}=\dfrac{10}{2}=5

We can find the side length of square 3 by dividing by 4, which is 9.

Then, we find the side length of square 2 by dividing it by 4, which is 12.

To find the AREA of square 1, we do a^2+b^2=c^2. This is basically adding up area of square 1 and square 2 to get square 3.

a^2+b^2=c^2
9^2+12^2=c^2
81+144=225

So the area is 225 units.
