Area = Length * Width = l * w
l = x + 2
w = 2x - 5
Area = (x + 2)(2x - 5) = 56
Area = 2x^2 -x - 10 = 56
Area = 2x^2 - x - 66 = 0 Now you have to factor this thing.
Area = (2x + 11)( x - 6) = 0 This is more or less done by guessing.
2x + 11 = 0 can't work. x would be negative.
x - 6 = 0
x = 6.
Check
=====
l = x + 2
l = 6 + 2
l = 8
w = 2*x - 5
w = 2*6 - 5
w = 12 - 5
w = 7
l*w = 8*7 = 56. It checks.

Answer:
The solution is the <u><em>answer </em></u>or the number <u><em>behind the = sign</em></u>
EX::6x+4 (x=7) 6(7)+4=46....46 would be the <u><em>solution</em></u>
Note that they together ate all of the pizza.
Therefore the total fractions they ate should add up to 1.
By letting the fraction Jodie ate be x.
x + 2/5 + 1/4 = 1
x = 7/20
The answer is 7/20.

Hello!
Brice is standing further away from the door, because 20 metres are greater than 20 centimetres.
A lot greater, actually, because 20 metres = 2,000 centimetres.
