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

Jacob is renting an auger (used to drill holes for posts). On Home Depot's website, the charge is $65 plus $7 per hour. At Lowes

Butoxors [25]

Answer:

10 hour rental

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = number of hours

HD cost: 7x + 65

L cost: 4x + 95

Set the two cost expressions equal and solve for x, the number of hours.

7x + 65 = 4x = 95

3x = 30

x = 10

The costs are equal for a 10 hour rental.
