The complete question in the attached figure

Let
x-------> represent the length side of the original square patio

we know that
Area of the original square patio=x²
x=9 ft
Area=9*9---------> 81 ft²

if Ezra reduce the width by 4 feet and increase the length by 4 feet
then
the new dimensions are
(x+4) ft x (x-4) ft

Area of the new patio=(x+4)*(x-4)----> (9+4)*(9-4)----> 13*5---> 65 ft²

therefore

the answer is the option
A. lw = (x + 4)(x – 4); 65 square feet

Damm [24]

Answer: 100 + 45t

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Damien deposited $100 into his savings account and that he then deposits $15 three times per month.

The equation that shows the amount in Damien's savings account after t months will then be:

= $100 + [($15 × 3) × t months]

= $100 + $45t

= 100 + 45t

R(r1+r2)=r1r2 solve for R

romanna [79]

We need to solve for R, This is really simple.

The original expression is:
R (r1 + r2) = r1r2

To solve for a certain variable, we need to get this variable alone on one side of the equation and equate it with the other side.

In the given expression, to get R alone on one side we have to eliminate (r1 + r2).
In order to do this, we will divide both sides by (r1 + r2).
Doing this, we get the solution as follows:
R = (r1r2) / (r1 + r2)
