X ·( x + 1 ) = 600
x² + x = 600
x² + x - 600 = 0
x_{12} = \frac{-1+/- \sqrt{1+2400} }{2}= \frac{-1+/- \sqrt{2401} }{2}= \\  =\frac{-1+/-50}{2}
x = ( - 1 - 49 ) / 2 = - 50 : 2 = - 25
x = - 25,  x + 1 = - 24
( - 25 ) · ( - 24 ) = 600
Answer:
C )   - 25

x ·( x + 1 ) = 600

x² + x = 600

x² + x - 600 = 0

x_{12} = \frac{-1+/- \sqrt{1+2400} }{2}= \frac{-1+/- \sqrt{2401} }{2}= \\  =\frac{-1+/-50}{2}  

x = ( - 1 - 49 ) / 2 = - 50 : 2 = - 25

x = - 25,  x + 1 = - 24

( - 25 ) · ( - 24 ) = 600

Answer:

C )   - 25

Larry wants to buy some carpeting for his living room the length of the room is 2 times width and the total area of the room is
cluponka [151]
Draw a diagram!  Lets say the width is x, then the length must be 2x.
   
                       Area = length x width
                          2x x  x    = 8sq meters
                         2x^2       = 8
                          x^2        =4
                           x      =  √4
                            x    = 2

we found the width the length is two times the width, making it 4 meters.
