Answer: The value of x is equal to 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

To start, we need to perform the distributive property.

5(-2 + x)  =  5 * -2 + 5 * x  =  -10 + 5x.

Now we have -10 + 5x = 35.

So next we need to isolate 5x by adding 10 to each side of the equation.

-10 + 5x = 35 + 10  =  5x  =  45.

The last step is to divide each side by 5.

5x/5 = 45/5.

And the final answer is x = 9.

You can also plug in 9 into the original equation.

5(-2 + 9) = 35.

5(7) = 35.

35 = 35.

Mrs. Aguirre is going to plant a rectangular garden in her rectangular backyard, as
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

From the image attached we can see that the width of the garden is 6 ft. The length of the garden is the slanting side of the triangle (hypotenuse).

Let x be the length of the garden. The height of the triangle = 40 ft - 15 ft = 25 ft.

The base of the triangle = 80 ft - 75 ft = 5 ft.

The length of the garden is gotten using Pythagoras:

x² = 25² + 5²

x² = 650

x = 25.5 ft.

The area of the garden = length * width = 25.5 * 6 = 153 ft²

Hence the approximate area = 160 ft²
