The equation A = x(x-4) describes the area, A, of a rectangular flower garden, where x is the width in feet.

Answer:

The flower garden width would be 6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 12 ft^2 = x(x + 4) becomes:

x^2 + 4x - 12 = 0, or (by completing the square) x^2 + 4x + 4 - 4 - 12 = 0

Thus, we have (x + 2)^2 - 16 = 0, or (x + 2)^2 = 16

Taking the square root of both sides yields x + 2 = ±4.

In this context only a positive x value makes sense:  x = 2 + 4  =>  x = 6.

The flower garden width would be 6 ft.  The other dimension would be 6 - 4, or 2, ft.

Round 9118 to the nearest ten
gavmur [86]

(8)=ones place

(1)0=tens place

(1)00=hundreds place

(9)000=thousands place

The "1" beside the 8, is the tenths spot so you would round that part of the number.

Therefore the answer would be:

9120
