Area = Length * Width = l * w
l = x + 2
w = 2x - 5
Area = (x + 2)(2x - 5) = 56
Area = 2x^2 -x - 10 = 56
Area = 2x^2 - x - 66 = 0 Now you have to factor this thing.
Area = (2x + 11)( x - 6) = 0 This is more or less done by guessing.
2x + 11 = 0 can't work. x would be negative.
x - 6 = 0
x = 6.
Check
=====
l = x + 2
l = 6 + 2
l = 8
w = 2*x - 5
w = 2*6 - 5
w = 12 - 5
w = 7
l*w = 8*7 = 56. It checks.

Answer:
0.30
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Total number of trials = 61
Number of orange chews = 38
Number of cherry chews = 5
Number of peach chews = 18
Probability that next chew removed will be a peach chew ;
This is an experimental probability problem ;
Using the relation :
Experimental probability of A;
Number of successes (A) / total number of trials
Hence, Probability that next chew removed will be a peach chew ;
Experimental probability of peach chew :
Number of trails = 61 ; number of successes (peach chew) = 18
P(peach chew) = 18 / 61
P( peach chew) = 0.2950819
= 0.30 ( nearest hundredth)
Answer:
4) wall = 114 ft^2
$118.56 to paint
5) 77 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
4) (15 x 8)-(2 x 3)=120-6=114 ft^2
114 x $1.04 = $118.56
5) (14 x 3.5) + (8 x 3.5) = 49 + 28 = 77 cm^2

so solve for "x", to see how much is the company paying for the purchase of 1 minute
now, they're plan to sell the minute for 8cents, how much is the profit?
that is, the difference from their cost of the cents to the planned selling price.
bear in mind, is 46,000,000 minutes, so whatever value you get for 1minute,
you need to multiply it for 46,000,000 to get the actual cost.
and the revenue from the sell of 8cents per minute, is of course, 8 * 46,000,000
profit = revenue - cost
