Answer:
x = 20
Length = 20ft
Width = 12ft
Step-by-step explanation:
A = 240
x^2 - 8x = 240
x^2 - 8x - 240 = 0
x^2 - 20x + 12x - 240 = 0
x(x-20) + 12(x-20) = 0
(x+12)(x-20) = 0
x = 20
x = -12 (which we discard since x is a length)
So the dimensions are 20ft and 20-8 = 12ft
Answer:
2/13
Step-by-step explanation:
In a deck of 52 cards, there are 2 sets of red cards. Diamonds and Hearts. In each set of red cards, there are 4 fives. If there are 2 sets, that means that there are 8 red fives in the deck of 52 cards. This means that the probability is 8/52 which is simplified into 2/13.
