Well how long is the ribbon? I'm not asking for the dollar amount, I will answer your question if you can tell me the length of the ribbon. No one can figure it out unless you give the total length.
Answer:
x = 3
Step-by-step explanation:

Square both sides of the equation


(x - 3)(x - 5) = 0
x = 3 or 5
Now, you must always check your results because a result may not satisfy the original equation.
If x = 3, then
and 3 - x = 3 - 3 = 0
So 3 satisfies the original.
If x = 5, then
, but 3 - x = 3 - 5 = -2. Therefore, 5 does NOT satisfy the original equation.
That means that x = 3 is the solution to the equation.
Answer:
r+3
Step-by-step explanation:
r is an expression. To get an expression that is 3 more, just add 3
r+3
You would get 9e+46 so not a real answer, just an estimate of what the answer is.
