x^2+4x-4=8

Subtract 8 from both sides: x^2+4x-4-8=8-8

Simplify: x^2+4x-12=0

Solve with the quadratic formula: For a=1,b=4,c=-12: x1,2= -4+- (4^2-4*1(-12))sqrt over 2*1

x= 2 and x=-6

Subtracting 8 from both sides of the equation gives

x^2 + 4x - 12 = 0

(x + 6)(x - 2)= 0

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Point X on number line 1 from 0= 2/3

Point Y on number line 2 from 0 = same distance as point X on number line

Point Y has a denominator of 8 ; the numerator is thus;°

Let denominator = d ; Fraction becomes 8/d

Thus `

Point X on 1 = point Y

2/3 = 8/ d

2d = 3 * 8

2d = 24

d = 12

A rectangular lawn has area 140 square yards. Its length is six less than twice the width. What are the width and length of the
Gwar [14]

Answer:

width = let width be w

area = 140

length = 2w-6

Area of a rectangle = l*b

⇒ 2w-6*w=140

⇒ 2w^2-6=140\\2w^2 = 146\\w^2 = 146/2\\w^2 = 73\\w = \sqrt{73}
