The length of the sides of the board are 12. (12 times 12 equals 144).
Answer:
<h2>The width is (2x + 5) or (x - 3)</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula of an area of a rectangle:
l - length
w - width
We have
The formula for area of a triangle is: 1/2 x base x height.
You are given the height of 4 and the area of 4.
Replace those in the formula and solve for x ( base)
4 = 1/2 x base x 4
Divide both sides by 4:
1 = 1/2 x base
Multiply both sides by 2:
2 = base
x = 2
Answer:
a. 2 b. 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay so for number one you use PEMDAS so you can either divide 144 by 12 first or multiply 5 and 6 or divide 6 by 3.
Normally, I do multiplicarion first so the first step would be to multiply 5 and 6 with is 30 so the new equation is 144/12+30/3 okay and then do the divisions.
So the new equation would be 12+10 and which equals 22
And for number two since you have a variable you can't use PEMDAS so just distribute the 11 but only to the ones in the parentheses.
So the new equation turns out to be 11x-33+5=0
Okay then, since you need to figure out what x is, you move over -33 and 5 by adding 33 and subtracting 5 which gives you 11x=33-5
And then just solve 11x=28 and x is a decimal number. (x=2.55)
