the greatest rectangular area would actually be a square
so 188/4 = 47 feet per side
so 47ft x 47ft
area = 47^2 = 2209 square feet
The answer is there are no solution that fulfill this equation because if you put for example -14 the answer will be -8 but there is absolutely sign, so the answer is 8. Hope it help!
Answer:
There is not enough information to be able to solve this question.
Add 2+x
9 = x
If you're wanting the value of x, the answer is ...
x = 9
_____
You can always solve an equation like this by subtracting one side, then dividing by the coefficient of x, then adding the opposite of the constant. If you choose to subtract the right side, these steps will give you ...
9 -x = 0 . . . . . . subtract -2 from both sides
-9 +x = 0 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of x, which was -1
x = 9 . . . . . . . . .add the opposite of the constant, so add 9
Whatever you do to one side of the equation, you must also do to the other side. When we say "subtract -2", we mean "subtract -2 from both sides of the equation."
