Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

-2/ ( x * (x+2)) = ( x+3) / ( x+2)

Using cross products

-2 ( x+2) = ( x+3) x* (x+2)

Divide each side by (x+2)   This means x cannot equal -2 because we are dividing by 0

-2 = x ( x+3)

Distribute

-2 = x^2 +3x

Add 2 to each side

0 = x^2 + 3x+2

Factor

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

Using the zero product property

x+2 = 0  x+1 = 0

x = -2    x = -1

But above we said x cannot equal -2

so x = -1

irga5000 [103]
Since, each side of the fence should have the 1 3/4 feet wide decorative piece, the width of the fence should be subtracted by 2 pieces (1 3/4 feet)
                                 = 26.5 feet
Then, divide the remaining width by 4.5 feet and the answer is 5.88. Thus, approximately 5 pieces of the 4 1/2 feet should be installed.
