X + x + 1 + x + 2 = 12
x + x + x + 3 = 12
subtract 3 for each side
x + x + x = 9
3x = 9
divide 3 from each side
x = 3
Small side 3 feet
Middle side 4 feet
Long side 5 feet
Answer:
126
Step-by-step explanation:
25
Square root of 25 is 5
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(x+3)² -5 =0 , use the formula (a+b) ² = a²+b²+2ab
x²+9 +6x -5 =0 , combine like terms
x²+6x +4 =0, use the quadratic formula x = (-b±√b²-4ac)/2a
x= (-6 ±√6²-4*1*4)/2*1
x= (-6 ± √36-16) /2
x= (-6±√20)/2
x=(-6 +2√5)/2 and x=( -6-2√5) /2, factor 2 in the numerator and simplify
x= -3 +√5 and x= -3 -√5
The perimeter of a rectangle is found by multiplying the length by 2 and the width by 2 and adding them together.
P = 2L + 2W
Filling in the information given we can find the width:
16.8 = 2(3.6) + 2W
16.8 = 7.2 + 2W
2w = 16.8 - 7.2
2w = 9.6
w = 9.6 / 2
w = 4.8 in.
