Answer:
(D)14
Step-by-step explanation:
17-2x=-11
17+11=2x
28=2x
28/2=2x/2
14=x
x=14
24 1/2 or 24.5 is the answer
Dimensions of rectangle = 12 + x and 14 + x
(12 + x) (14 + x) = 288
x^2 + 26x + 168 = 288
x^2 + 26x - 120 = 0
(x + 30) (x - 4) = 0
x=-30, x =4
since 4 is positive
the dimensions increased by 4 feet
check the answer
12+4 = 16
14 +4 = 18
18*16 =288
Answer:
fx is 4, gx is 3, hx is anything greater than, not equal to, 4.
Hope this helps!
