3x-13=2

move -13 to the other side

sign changes from -13 to +13

3x-13+13=2+13

3x=2+13

3x=15

divide both sides by 3 to get x by itself

3x/3=15/3

cross out 3 and 3, divide by 3 and then becomes 1*1*x=x

x=15/3

x=5

answer:

x=5

The length of a rectangle is the sum of the width and one. The area direct angle 72 units. What’s the length, in units, of the r

insens350 [35]

Answer:

The length of the rectangle is of 9 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving a quadratic equation:

Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:

$ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0$ .

This polynomial has roots $x_{1}, x_{2}$ such that $ax^{2} + bx + c = a(x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2})$ , given by the following formulas:

$x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}$

$x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}$

$\bigtriangleup = b^{2} - 4ac$

Area of a rectangle:

A rectangle has width $w$ and length $l$ . The area is the multiplication of these measures, that is:

$A = wl$

The length of a rectangle is the sum of the width and one.

This means that $l = w+1$ , or $w = l - 1$

The area direct angle 72 units. What’s the length, in units, of the rectangle

We want to find the length. So

$wl = 72$

$(l-1)l = 72$

$l^2 - l - 72 = 0$

Quadratic equation with $a = 1, b = -1, c = -72$ . So

$\bigtriangleup = (-1)^{2} - 4(1)(-72) = 289$

$l_{1} = \frac{-(-1) + \sqrt{289}}{2*(1)} = 9$

$l_{2} = \frac{-(-1) - \sqrt{289}}{2*(1)} = -8$

Since the length is a positive measure, the length of the rectangle is of 9 units.

The present above is a 10 in by 10 in by 10 in cube. How many square inches of wrapping paper do you need to wrap the box?

Mashutka [201]

Answer:

600 in^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 6 faces on a cube so the area we need is:

6 * 10 * 10

= 600 in^2.
