Answer:

The correct answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the first equation by -7, and the second equation by 8, and then add.

What you're trying to do is cancel them out so they have to opposite signs in order for them to cancel out. You can't do that if the signs are the same, which is what option A suggests doing. B is the correct answer.

the area of a rectangular field is x^2-x-72m^2. the length of the field is x+8m. what is the width of the field in meters?
olga nikolaevna [1]
So first off, remember the formula for the area of a rectangle. it's length time width right? or, you could think that A= 2 things multiplied together. how can we simplify x^2 - x -72 to equal two things multiplied together? well, we can factor it! We know that one of the factors is x+8 right? so what's the other factor? it would be x-9. so, we know width is x-9. I'm not sure if you need an actual value for width. if so, I could probably go further.
