Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

first, add 5 to both sides. the -5 and +5 cancel out, and 15 + 6 is 20. 2x=20. now divide 2 on both sides. the 2s cancel out and 20/2 is 10, so x=10.

The area of a rectangle is 65 m2 , and the length of the rectangle is 3 m less than twice the width. find the dimensions of the

salantis [7]

X = <span>width
2x-3 = </span><span>length

</span> $x(2x-3) = 65\\
2x^2 - 3x - 65 = 0 \\ D=b^2-4ac=(-3)^2-4*2*(-65)=529\\
x_{1,2}= \frac{-bб \sqrt{D} }{2a}= \frac{3б 23}{4} \\ x_1=-5 \ \ \O \\ x_2=6.5 \ \$

width = 6.5 m
length = 2x-3 = 2*6.5 - 3 = 10 m
