Step-by-step explanation:
the area of the square is (x+2)^2 and the factored form of it is x^2+4x+4
since we know the area is = 7 therefore
x^2 + 4x +4 = 7 and x^2 + 4x = 3
if you want to find the value of x :
x^2+4x+4 = 7
x^2+4x -3 = 0
(x-3)(x-1)=0
x = 3 or
x = 1

Answer:
(b) 28
Step-by-step explanation:
The total of the 3 numbers will be 3×15 = 45. Then the third number is ...
45 -7 -10 = 28
Answer:
In terms of probablity (A - appetizer oredered, B - desert ordered)
P(A)=63%
P(B)=40%
P(AorB)=76%.
Using the formula:
P(AorB)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A&B) we get P(A&B)=63%+40%-76%=27% (probability we were looking for).
A) If you cut off half the peaks (3.5 ft down from the top), they will just fill the valleys making a rectangle 18.5 ft by 30 ft. The area is the product of these dimensions.
A = (18.5 ft)*(30 ft) = 555 ft²
b) To determine the number of quarts of paint required, divide this number by 90 ft². Since you cannot buy a partial quart, if there is any remainder, use the next higher integer number of quarts.
555/90 ≈ 6.2 so Pat should buy 7 quarts of paint.
