Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Add 5 to both sides</u>

<u /> $\frac{x}{12}-5+5=7+5$

$\frac{x}{12}=12*12$

$x=144$

Answer: Option B, x = 144

Stephen makes wooden shelves for his room he starts with a board that is 20 feet long.Stephen wants to make the shelves 3/4 foot

jek_recluse [69]

The number of shelves stephen can make is approximately 27

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Given that Stephen makes wooden shelves for his room

Stephen wants to make the shelves 3/4 foot long

He starts with a board that is 20 feet long

To find: number of shelves he can make

So the number of shelves stephen can make can make is found out by dividing 20 feet long board by 3/4 foot long

$\text {number of shelves }=\frac{\text { total length of board stephen has }}{\text { length of each board }}$

$\text {number of shelves }=\frac{20}{3 / 4}=\frac{20}{0.75}=26.6$

So the number of shelves stephen can make is approximately 27

F(x) = 4x² – 17x+3

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

discriminant: 241

2 real roots

Step-by-step explanation:

The discriminant is the part of the quadratic equation that is under the sqare root

x=(-b±√(b²-4ac))/2a

discriminant: b²-4ac

We also know that a quadratic equation is in the form ax²+bx+c = 0, so we can plug in the values we know from our equation to find the discriminant.

a=4

b=-17

c=3

(-17)^2-4(4)(3)

We also know that if the discriminant

is positive we have 2 real roots

is 0 we have 1 real root aka a repeated real solution

is negative we have no real roots

The width of a rectangle is 5 units less than the length. The area of the rectangle is 6 units. What is the width, in units, of

Readme [11.4K]

Answer:

The width of rectangle is 1 unit.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The area of rectangle is 6 units and its width is 5 units less than the length.

So, to find the width of rectangle.

Let the length be $x$ and the width be $x-5$ .

Now, to find the width we put the formula of area of rectangle:

Area = length × width

$6= x\times (x-5)$

$6=x^{2}-5x$

$0=x^{2}-5x-6$

$0=x^{2}-6x+x-6$

$0=x(x-6)+1(x-6)$

$0=(x-6)(x+1)$

<em>On solving equation we get:</em>

$x-6=0, x+1=0$

Therefore, we take the value x=6 as it is positive value:

$x-6=0$

$x=6$

So, the width of rectangle:

Width = $x-5$

= $6-5$

= $1$

Therefore, the width of rectangle is 1 unit.
