No Spam. I will mark Brainliest, if you get it right. A tank's length is 4 feet longer than its width. The height is 2 feet more

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let say x the width of the tank,

x+4 its length,

x+2 its height

$Volume=105=x(x+4)(x+2)\\\\P(x)=x^3+6x^2+8x-105=0\\\\105=3*5*7\\\\P(1)\neq 0\\P(-1)\neq 0\\P(3)=0\\\\\begin{array}{|c|cccc|}&x^3&x^2&x&1\\&1&6&8&-105\\x=3&&3&27&105\\----&--&--&--&--\\&1&9&35&0\\\end{array}\\\\\\P(x)=x^3+6x^2+8x-105=(x-3)(x^2+9x+35)\\And \ x^2+9x+35\ is\ not \ factorizable\ (\Delat=9^2-4*35 < 0)\\$

<u>width=3</u>

length=3+4=7

height=3+2=5

How do i solve 2x+6>20

lukranit [14]

Hello!

To solve 2x+6>20, you'll first need to subtract. First, you'll need to subtract 6 from 20 (20-6). Now if the 6 was negative, you would need to add 6 to 20, but for this equation you'll subtract.

2x>14

Now you will need to divide both sides by 2. Once you've done that you'll have your answer of...

x>7

I hope this helps!
