J = m - 1 1/4 (ft).......j = m - 15 inches...because 1 1/4 ft = 15 inches
m = L + 1/3 (ft).......m = L + 4 inches....because 1/3 ft = 4 inches
L = 62 inches
m = L + 4
m = 62 + 4
m = 66 inches or 5.5 ft <==Maria
j = m - 15
j = 66 - 15
j = 51 inches or 4.25 ft <== Juan
Answer:
0 maybe?
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
please explain your question, degree of what?
I don't get how it would be a system of equations.
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>
