X(x + 2) = 120sq units 

<span>Set it equal to 0 </span>
<span>x^2 + 2x - 120 = 0 </span>

<span>factor </span>
<span>(x + 12)(x - 10) </span>

<span>For the shorter side: </span>
<span>x - 10 = 0 </span>
<span>x = 10 </span>

<span>Now that you have x, solve for the longer side which we said was represented by </span>
<span>x + 2 </span>
<span>10 + 2 = 12 </span>

<span>Proof </span>
<span>A = L x W </span>
<span>120 = 10 x 12 </span>
<span>120 = 120 </span>
<span>true </span>

<span>Our length is 12 and our width is 10</span>

Joe is finding the length of a rectangular prism. The volume of the prism is 204 ft3. The width is 3.5 ft, and the height is 5 f
zmey [24]

Answer:

B. He added 3.5 and 5 when he should have multiplied them.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's observe Joe's steps:

- V = lwh

- 204 = 3.5 * (5) * l

Here, * means to multiply, so we're supposed to multiply 3.5 to 5, which would give you the answer 17.5. Unfortunately, look what Joe got: he obtained the value of 8.5, and if we observe, 3.5 + 5 = 8.5.

That's how we know that Joe added instead of multiplied, as he should have done. Thus, the answer is B.
