Create an equation using the formula for area of a rectangle; area = width * length
(X + 2)(x + 3) = 600
Multiply the dimensions.
X^2 + 3x + 2x +6 = 600, or simplified x^2 +5x + 6 = 600.
Subtract 600 to get the following:
X^2 + 5x - 594 = 0
Factor by x:
(X - 22)(x + 27) = 0
Solve for x
X - 22 = 0
X = 22.
Use the POSITIVE VALUE of x as you can’t have a negative area for a room.
Then substitute 22 for x to get the dimensions
(22+ 2) or 24 for length and (22+3) or 25 for width.

Which line is the line of reflection?<br><br>A. a<br>B. b<br>C. c<br>D. d
Leto [7]
The line of reflection is b

You can see it much easier if take away all the clutter. Redraw the diagram and take way a d and especially c.

You should be left with only line b and the two triangles. You can see it much easier if you do that. Then just look at the parallel lines of the triangles. They are right across from each other.
