Answer:Answer:
The 'run' is
120
Explanation:
The simple way of explaining slope is to say
rise
run
The slope in this case is the simplified answer, so to find what it was, write equivalent fractions.

The 'run' is
120
The current area is 15 x 9 = 135 square feet.
He wants to increase both the length and width by X:
Set up an equation:
(15 +x) * (9 +x) = 135 * 2
Simplify :
x^2 + 24x + 135 = 270
Subtract 270 from both sides:
x^2 + 24x - 135 = 0
Use the quadratic formula to solve for x:
-24 +/- √(24^2 - 4(1*-135) / 2*1
x = 4.7 or -28.7
The answer has to be a positive value, so x = 4.7 feet.
Answer
It’s the first one I guess
Since it’s obviously given in the sequence
Hope it’s correct
