Length = x - 2
Width = x - 5
Explanation:
Area = x^2 - 7x + 10
Area = (x - 2)(x - 5)
Area = Length x Width
Length = x - 2
Width = x - 5
Two consecutive odd integers have a difference of 2. If you let the smaller one of them be x, the other one is x + 2.
Their sum is -36, so add x and x + 2, and set equal to -36. Then solve for x to find the smaller one. Finally, 2 more than x is the greater of the two integers.
x + x + 2 = -36
2x + 2 = -36
2x = -38
x = -19
The smaller one of the two integers is -19.
x + 2 = -19 + 2 = -17
The greater of the two integers is -17.
Answer: The integers are -19 and -17.
Answer:
X=3
Step-by-step explanation:
2(4x-3)-t=4+2x
multiply parentheses by 2
8x-6-8=4+2x
Calculate
8x-14=4+2x
Move terms
8x-2x=4+14
Calculate the sum after collecting like terms
6x=18
Divide both sides by 6
x=3
5+5=10 and 10-7.75 is 2.25 so he would get back $2.25 as change
