Answer:

  • (a) 104 = 4(12+x)
  • (b) x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) The new side length of Ben's garden is (12+x), since x is the amount of increase above the existing 12 ft side length.

The perimeter is the sum of the lengths of the four equal sides, so is ...

  perimeter = 4 × side length

  104 = 4(12+x)

(b) We can solve this by dividing by 4, then subtracting 12.

  26 = 12 +x . . . . . divide the above equation by 4

  14 = x . . . . . . . . . subtract 12

The solution is x = 14.

Simplify the expression to a polynomial in standard form.<br> (x-2)(x2 +7x +4)
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(x  - 2)(x² + 7x + 4) = x(x² + 7x + 4) - 2*(x² + 7x + 4)

                              = x*x² + x*7x + 4*x  - 2*x² -2* 7x -2* 4

                               = x³ + 7x² + 4x - 2x²  -14x -8

                                = x³ + <u>7x² - 2x²</u>    <u>+  4x - 14x</u> - 8

                                = x³ + 5x² - 10x - 8

Based on your value of x in question #1, what is the value for ∠EHF
Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

∠EHF = 132°

Step-by-step explanation:

Both angles lie on a straight line.

=====================

  • ∠EHF + ∠FHG = 180°
  • 2(x) + 48° = 180°
  • 2(x) = 180° - 48°
  • 2(x) = 132°
  • x = 66°

Then ∠EHF :

  • 2(x)
  • 2(66)
  • 132°
