Square both sides. (5-2x) - (2-x) = 1^2. 5 - 2x - 2 + x = 1. Simplify to get 3 - x = 1. X=2
Well you need an equation because how many friends were at the party? x*12x10=w thats your equation or however you want to put it. the letters are your variables
1) this is total area of two triangle
area of a triangle=1/2*b*h
A=1/2*9*4
A=18 inches^2
multiply by 2 because there are two triangle with same measure
2A=2*18=36 inches^2
3) this is a area of rectangle and a triangle and then subtract
A2=9.3x7.8= 72.54
area of triangle A1=1/2*7.8 *3.3=12.87
A2-A1=59.69 mm^2
5) now u ca do it
The equation would then be f(x) = 140 x 2(24)
