Area of a rectangle is length by width, width is x, length is x+8
x×(x+8)=240
x²+8x=240
x²+8x-240=0
Use the quadratic formula to solve


It is a distance so can't be negative, so the answer must be 12

Answer:
B) d=4t
Step-by-step explanation:
let's look at two points
1. t=0, d = 0
2. t = 1, d = 4
slope = change in vertical axis (d)/ change in horizontal axis (t)
change in d = 4 = d₂-d₁
change in t = 1 = t₂-t₁
slope = 4/1 = 4
vertical variable = slope * horizontal variable + horizontal axis intercept
d = 4 * t + horizontal axis intercept
horizontal axis intercept is the vertical axis variable (d) when the horizontal axis variable (t) is at 0. at t=0, d=0
thus, d = 4 * t + 0
d = 4t (B)
Step 1: 18x - 42 = 2
step 2: 18x = 44
Answer:
p = 10
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve an equation we must isolate the variable we're solving for, p.
We can do this by undoing operations in the equation.
First, multiply both sides of the equation by 14.

This gives you 4 + p = 14
Then, you can subtract 4 from both sides:
4 - 4 + p = 14 - 4
p = 10
