Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer: x = -1

Discussion:

Let x be the unknown integer. Then

5 x^2 + 3x = 2 or

5x^2 + 3x -2 = 0 or (factoring)

(x+1) ( 5x -2) = 0

so x = -1 (the other value of x, +2/5, is not an integer)

Thank you,

MrB

the length of a rectangle is 3 units shorter than one -third of the width, x. Which expression represents the perimeter of the r

Mariana [72]

Answer:

A) $\frac{8}{3} x - 6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the width of the rectangle be x units.

$\therefore \: length \: of \: rectangle = \frac{1}{3} x - 3 \\ Perimeter \: of \: rectangle = 2(l + w) \\ = 2 \bigg( \frac{1}{3} x - 3 + x \bigg)\\ = 2 \bigg( x + \frac{1}{3} x - 3 \bigg)\\ = 2 \bigg( \frac{3x + x}{3} - 3 \bigg)\\ = 2 \bigg( \frac{4x}{3} - 3 \bigg) \\ = 2 \bigg( \frac{4x}{3} - 3 \bigg) \\ = \frac{2 \times 4x}{3} -2 \times 3 \\ \purple{ \bold{{Perimeter \: of \: rectangle = \frac{8}{3} x - 6}}}$
