So the object of this problem is to find out the value of d.
To do this, first think about 5 + 3. This equals 8, right? So the value of d times 4 has to equal 8.
No other number besides 2 would make sense. 2 would equal d because 4 x 2 is 8, and 5 + 3 is 8.
So you would write the answer as:
5+3=4(2)
Answer:
9.76
Step-by-step explanation:
area of a rectangle = length * breadth
length = (2x + 3)
breadth = x
given area is 220 sq. inches.
thus,
220 = x * (2x+3)
220 = 2x² +3x
2x² + 3x -220 = 0
x = (-b + √ ( b²-4ac) ) ÷ 2a
x = ( -3 + √ ( 3² - 4*2*220) ) ÷ 2*2
x =9.76
You need to give us a picture in order for us to help you
Let's represent Ben's current age by x and his age in 16 years, x+16.If in 16 years, his age will be 3 times his age now, the equation is x+16=3x
x+16=3x
x-x+16=3x-x
16=2x
16/2=2x/2
8=x
Therefore Ben is 8 years old.
