(x+2)(2x-5)=56
2x^2-5x+4x-10=56
2x^2-x-10=56
2x^2-x-66=0
2x^2-12x+11x-66=0
2x(x-6)+11(x-6)=0
(2x+11)(x-6)=0, since x is a measurement x>0 so:
x=6cm
Where is the question? It’s 2(3)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:

Combine like terms. 1/4 and 7/8 are like terms and LCD of 4 and 8 is 8
9/10y and -3/5y are like terms and LCD of 10 , 5 is 10

If it’s 5 times you would multiply 8000 x 5 which is 40,000.
