To solve this you first expand the brackets.
4x^2 - 20x + 25 = 49
Then make it equal 0.
4x^2 - 20x - 24 = 0
Now solve the quardratic.
x^2 - 5x - 6 = 0
(x - 6)(x + 1) = 0
x = 6 or x = -1
The rule for secants tells you
EC·ED = EB·EA
(x+4)(x+5) = (x+1)(x+12)
9x+20 = 13x+12 . . . . . . simplify, subtract x²
8 = 4x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . add -12-9x
2 = x
The value of x is 2.

Answer below Please give brainliest!!
Step-by-step explanation:
Sue Black: 8x5=40 hours 40 x $6.75 = $270
Jerry Atrix: 7.25 + 3 + 6.75 + 8 + 5 = 30 hours
30 x $5.15 = $154.50
Sam Ting: 7.75 x 5 = 38.75 hours
38.75 x $8.75 = 339.0625 = $339.06
3/8 x 2/6 = 6/48 which simplified is 1/8
Let
x---------> the length of the rectangle
y--------> the width of the rectangle
we know that
A=84 ft²
[area of rectangle]=x*y-----> 84=x*y-----> equation 1
x=y-5------> equation 2
substitute 2 in 1
84=[y-5]*y-----> 84=y²-5y---------> y²-5y-84=0
using a graph tool-----> to resolve the second order equation
see the attached figure
the solution is
y=12
x=y-5-----> x=12-5-----> x=7
the answer isthe length of the rectangle is 7 ftthe width of the rectangle is 12 ft
