Half = 0.5
x-the number
<span>Ten times the sum of half a number and 6 is 8:
10 · (0.5x + 6) = 8 |use distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac
5x + 60 = 8 |subtract 60 from both sides
5x = -52 |divide both sides by 5
<span>x = -10.4</span></span>

Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The patio is in the form of a rectangle. The patio has a width of (x - 10) ft. Therefore given that the area of the patio is x² + 10x - 200, hence:

b) Area of original house = length of house * breadth of house
The length of house = length of patio = x + 20; breadth of house = x + 10; therefore:
Area of original house = (x + 20)(x + 10) = x² + 10x + 20x + 200
Area of original house = x² + 30x + 200
c) If the width is extended, hence:
