Solve both equations for x:

2x+7 = 3

2x = -4

x = -2

Plug x into the equation which contains b:

b(-2) -10 = -2

-2b = 8

b = -4


Answer:

b = -4

x = -2

First combine like terms and put the expression in standard form. This expression is now in simplest form and cannot be simplified anymore.
3a + 10ab - 7a^2b - 10ab^2 + 12ab - (-4) + (-a^2b) - 5a
-10ab^2 - 8a^2b -2a + 24ab - (-4)

Hope this helps

Marysya12 [62]
Tan^2x + 1 + tanx - 3 = 0 tan^2x + tanx - 2 = 0 (tanx + 2)(tanx - 1) = 0 tanx = -2 or tanx = 1 x = 2.034 radians or x = 5.176 radians or x = pi/4 radians or x = 5pi/4 radians

The key word here is *square* in "square flower garden". 

So we need to find the area of the flower garden, and subtract it from the overall area of the yard. The remainder will be how much grass covers the yard.

Area of the Square flower garden:
 7.5 * 7.5 = 56.25

Area of the Entire yard:
25 * 18 = 450

450 - 56.25 = 393.75 square feet of grass
