The value of x is 3, while the length of the rectangle is 30 units and the width is 24 units.
<h3>How to determine the dimensions?</h3>
The given parameters are:
Base = 5(x+3)
Height = 2(x+9)
Perimeter = 108
The perimeter of a rectangle is
P = 2 *(Base + Height)
So, we have:
2 *(5(x + 3) + 2(x + 9)) = 108
Divide both sides by 2
5(x + 3) + 2(x + 9) = 54
Open the brackets
5x + 15 + 2x + 18 = 54
Evaluate the like terms
7x = 21
Divide by 7
x = 3
Substitute x = 3 in Base = 5(x+3) and Height = 2(x+9)
Base = 5(3+3) = 30
Height = 2(3+9) = 24
Hence, the value of x is 3, while the length of the rectangle is 30 units and the width is 24 units.

Answer: B (-12, 15)
Step: (3×-4) =-12
And (3×5)= 15
If the two sides with length 3 and 4 are the two legs, then the missing side, i.e. the hypotenuse, is indeed 5.
But it could also be the case that 4 is the hypotenuse and 3 is one of the legs. In this case, the missing side is the other leg, so we calculate it using
So, a right triangle with legs 
and 3 has an hypotenuse of 4.
Step 1 : Simplify both sides
-5(6a+21)=-15
(-5)(6a)+(-5)(21)=-15
-30a-105=-15
Step 2 : Add 105 to both sides
-30a-105+105=-15+105
-30a=90
Step 3 : Divide both sides by -30
-30a=90

Answer:
x2-5x-8=0
Step-by-step explanation:
Two solutions were found :
x =(5-√57)/2=-1.275
x =(5+√57)/2= 6.275
Reformatting the input :
Changes made to your input should not affect the solution:
(1): "x2" was replaced by "x^2".
Step by step solution :
Step 1 :
Trying to factor by splitting the middle term
1.1 Factoring x2-5x-8
The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .
The middle term is, -5x its coefficient is -5 .
The last term, "the constant", is -8
Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • -8 = -8
Step-2 : Find two factors of -8 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -5 .
-8 + 1 = -7
-4+ 2 = -2
-2+ 4 = 2
-1 + 8 = 7
