Area = length x width.
24 = (x + 2)(x - 3) = x² - x - 6
x² - x - 30 = 0
(x + 5)(x - 6) = 0
We can eliminate the root x = - 5 because dimensions cannot be negative. So, the only valid answer is x = 6
The length = x + 2 = 6 + 2 = 8 in.
The width = x - 3 = 6 - 3 = 3 in.
Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
The number that needs to be added is the square of half the x-coefficient:
(-10/2)^2 = 25
_____
Adding that gives ...
(x -5)^2 = 32
x = 5 ± 4√2
1.44 per kg
take 1.3 x 2, then subtract 12.7, finally divide that by 7
A) 3x (you substitute the g equation into the f one by putting it in the x value for f)
b) x (do the same thing, but switch the letters)
