Answer: x=7
Step-by-step explanation: First you distribute the 12 to (10-x). That then gives you 15x+120-12x=141. Now you combine like terms. So you do 15x-12x=3x. Your new equation now is 3x+120=141. Subtract 120 from 141 and mark it out. That leaves you with 3x=21. Divide both sides by 3. Your final answer is x=7.
Split the second term 7x^2 - 8x - 12 into two terms
7x^2 + 6x - 14x - 12
Factor out common terms in the first two terms, then in the last two terms
x(7x + 6) - 2(7x + 6)
Factor out the common term; 7x + 6
<u>(7x + 6)(x - 2) </u>
It would be $2.40. 4 or less just ignore 5 or more add 1 more
Answer:
7 1/2 square meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a rectangle is the product of its length and width.
A = LW
A = (9 m)(5/6 m) = 45/6 m² = 7 1/2 m²
The area of Dina's new rug is 7 1/2 square meters.
