So let's start out by labeling Ethan as X

Since 85 is 1/3 of what Ethan drove, that means Ethan drove 3 times of 85.

85= (3x) -21                                 
85 -21 = 3x
60=3x
20 = x

Use the zero product property to find the solutions to the equation 2x2 + x – 1 = 2.
FromTheMoon [43]

2 {x}^{2} + x - 1 = 2

Subtract sides -2

2 {x}^{2} + x - 1 - 2 = 2 - 2

2 {x}^{2} + x - 3 = 0

(x - 1)(2x + 3) = 0

_________________________________

x - 1 = 0

x = 1

##############################

2x + 3 = 0

x =  -  \frac{3}{2}  \\

Find m<br> ∠<br> J<br> L<br> K<br> ∠JLK.
seraphim [82]

Answer:

m∠JLK° = 62°

Step-by-step explanation:

∠JLK = ∠KJL

SO

56°+2(∠JLK)° = 180°

2(∠JLK)° = 180-56

2(∠JLK)° = 124

∠JLK° = 62°

so m∠JLK° = 62°

A sheet of cardboard 10 inches by 12 inches will be made into a box by cutting equal-sized squares from each corner and folding
Lady_Fox [76]
The attached figure represents the cardboard (10inches by 12 inches) and the squares that should be cut to make the box.

let the length of the square = x
So , the length of the box = L = 12 - 2x
       the width of the box = W = 10 - 2x

And, the area = L * W = 80           ⇒(given)
∴   L * W = (12-2x)(10-2x) = 80

∴ (12 - 2x)(10-2x) =80               
    4x² - 44x + 120 = 80        ⇒ multiply the brackets     
    4x² - 44x +120 - 80 = 0    ⇒ make all variables in one side
    4x² - 44x + 40 = 0            ⇒ sum the similar
    x² - 11x +10 = 0               ⇒ solve by analysis
    (x-1)(x-10) = 0
∴     x = 10 (rejected because the cardboard length = 10 inch)
OR  x = 1
  ∴   the size of the square should be cut from each corner = 1 inch by 1 inch
