Answer:

x = -10

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

180 + 8x = 160 + 6x

Step 2: Solve for x

Subtract 6x on both sides: 180 + 2x = 160
Subtract 180 on both sides: 2x = -20
Divide both sides by 2: x = -10

Step 3: Check

Plug in x to verify it's a solution.

180 + 8(-10) = 160 + 6(-10)

180 - 80 = 160 - 60

100 = 100

lawyer [7]

(n + 7)2 = n - 1
2n +14 = n - 1
2n - n +14 = n - n - 1
n + 14 -14 = -1 - 14
n = -15
(-15 + 7)2 = -15 - 1
(-8)2 = -16
-16 = -16

WORDED QUADRATIC EQUATION!!! PLS HELP MOSTLY NUMBER 5 PLS

pav-90 [236]

Answer:

7,11

Step-by-step explanation:

The width is x. x+4= the length. The area is side times side, so it’s

x × (x+4) = 77

We can simplify this to:

x × x + x × 4 = 77

x^2 + 4x = 77

x^2 + 4x - 77 = 0 This is a quadratic equation. So we can solve using the quadratic formula:

x = $\frac{-4\pm\sqrt{4^2-4\cdot1\cdot-77}}{2\cdot1}$ ->

$\frac{-4\pm18}{2}$

$\frac{14}{2} \implies7$

That’s the positive solution and that’s x, the width. So the width is 7 and the length is 7+4=11
