Answer:

<h2>x = 9</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2-36=5x\qquad\text{subtract}\ 5x\ \text{from bot sides}\\\\x^2-5x-36=0\\\\x^2+4x-9x-36=0\qquad\text{distribute}\\\\x(x+4)-9(x+4)=0\\\\(x+4)(x-9)=0\iff x+4=0\ \vee\ x-9=0\\\\x+4=0\qquad\text{subtract 4 from both sides}\\\\x=-40

A rectangle is 5 meters longer than its width. If the length is shortened by 2 meters and width is increased by 1 meter, the are
Katarina [22]

Answer: Area = 6m²

              Smaller number = 16

              Hours = 9.6 h

Step-by-step explanation:

A rectangle is 5 meters longer than its width. If the length is shortened by 2 meters and width is increased by 1 meter, the area remains the same. Find the area of the rectangle.

1) w = x m                                2) w = x + 1 m

     l = x + 5  m                               l = x + 5 - 2 = x + 3 m

A₁ = A₂

A = w*l

A₁ = x(x+5) = x² + 5x

A₂ = (x+1)(x+2) = x² + x + 2x + 2 = x² + 3x + 2

A₁ = A₂

x² + 5x = x² + 3x + 2

5x - 3x = 2

2x = 2

x = 1

A₁ = x(x+5) = 1.6 = 6 m²

The ratio of two numbers is 2:5. If the larger number is 40, what is the smaller number.

<u> 2 </u> = <u> x </u>

5     40

5x = 80

x = 80/5 = 16

5x = 16*3

5x = 48

x = 48/5
