1. Regroup terms
x(x+5)=104

2. Expand
x^2+5x=104

3. Move all terms to one side
x^2+5x-104=0

4. Factor x^2+5x-104
(x-8)(x+13)=0

5. Solve for x
x=8 or x=-13
Since x<0 is not possible in this case, x=8

6. Finding the dimensions
We know that one side has to be x+5, and now that we know x:
8+5=13
13*8=104

The dimensions are 13 and 8, have a nice day :D

What is the slope of (0,2) and (-8,-8)?
Doss [256]

Answer: 1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Slope is calculated as y2 - y1/ x2 - x1

Step 2: identify the coordinates, from the stated question, y2 = -8; y1= 2

x2= -8; x1=0

Step 3: slot in the values into the formula

slope= -8 - 2/ -8 - 0

slope = -10/ -8

slope= 1.25
