X(x+2) = 48
x^2 + 2x = 48
x^2 + 2x - 48 = 0

Elden [556K]
Let the length be l
Then, 
l *(l-3)= 88
l²-3l =88
l²-3l-88=0
l²-11l +8l -88 =0
l(l-11) + 8(l-11) =0
(l+8)(l-11)=0
As, l can't be negative, length=11cm and width=(l-3)=11-3 =8 cm

-12 = -6(-8n + 6) + 8(-4+n)<br> How do you solve this equation
ollegr [7]

Answer:

n=1

Step-by-step explanation:

distribute

-6 times -8n is =48n

-6 times 6 =-36

8 times -4 = -32

8 times n =8n

rewrite equation

48n-36+-32+8n=-12

48n+8n-36-32=-12

56n-68=-12

add 68 on both sides

=56

56n=56

n= 1
