Assuming that x = width 
the length would be = x+20

x (x+20) = 500
X^2 +20x - 500 = 0

Based on the equation above, you can find the x which will became the width and then added that width with 20 and you find the length

hope this helps

Consider the equation: x^2+10x+22=13<br> Need help asap!!!! <br> this is due in a hour!
klio [65]

Answer:

(x + 5)^2 = (5 - 3)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation;

x^2 + 10x + 22 = 13

We have;

x^2 + 10x = 13 - 22

x^2 + 10x = -9

Adding half of 10 to both sides and completing the square as usual, we have;

(x + 5)^2 = 5^2 + (-9)

(x + 5)^2 = (5 - 3)^2

The green county sale tax rate is 6.5%. What is the total cost of purchasing a pair of shoes for $35 and a shirt for $22
dezoksy [38]
$60.71! Add $35 and $22 together, which is $57. Multiply that by 6.5% (0.065), which produces 3.705, which rounds down to $3.71. Add $3.71 to $57, and voila!

So! What is 19% of 800? :)
o-na [289]
19% of 800 is 152

Change the percentage into a decimal by dividing it over 100:
\frac{19}{100} = 0.19

Multiply 0.19 by 800:
0.9 \times 800 = 152
