Okay, so...
length = x+2
width = 2x-5

Multiply these
x+2(2x-5)
x + 4x - 10
5x - 10 = 56

5x - 10 = 56
+ 10 + 10

5x = 66

x = 11.20

:D

X/2-1/5=x/3+1/4<br>solve this equation

Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

$x=\frac{27}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{x}{2}-\frac{1}{5}=\frac{x}{3}+\frac{1}{4}$

$\frac{x}{2}-\frac{1}{5}-\frac{x}{3}=\frac{x}{3}+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{x}{3}$

$-\frac{1}{5}+\frac{x}{6}=\frac{1}{4}$

$-\frac{1}{5}+\frac{x}{6}+\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{5}$

$\frac{x}{6}=\frac{9}{20}$

$\frac{6x}{6}=\frac{9\times \:6}{20}$

$x=\frac{27}{10}$
