Length = x + 2 (because it is 2 cm more than x)
Width = 2x - 5 (5 cm lest than 2x)Area = 54 cm2 this is the formula to find the area Length × Width = Area (x + 2)(2x - 5) = 542x2 - x - 10 = 54 (this is you area)
Subtract 54 on both sides of equation to make the right side zero. 2x2 - x - 64 = 0 then use the quadratic formula x = (-b ± √(b2 - 4ac)) / 2a where:a = 2b = -1c = -64 Plug in these values into the formula. x = (1 ± √(1 - 4(-128))) / 4 x = (1 ± √(513)) / 4 x = (1 ± 22.65) / 4 x = (1 + 22.65) / 4 and x = (1 - 22.65) / 4 x = 5.91 and x = -5.41 Check the validity of the x values by adding them to the length and width. If the length or width should be a negative value, then that value of x is not acceptable. Now x = 5.91 Length = 5.91 + 2 (positive value.)Width = 2(5.91) - 5 ( positive value.) x = 5.91 If we look at this -- x = -5.41, Both length and width will be negative values. We reject this value of x. The answer is x = 5.91
Hope I helped and sorry it was really long
Answer: x= 2 , y= 5 (5+2=7)
Step-by-step explanation:
I don't really know how to put it into an equation- but here's your values?? Sorry if this didn't help ):
Answer:
k=2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1:
Step 1 in solving the exponential equations is re-writing the base same as other side of the equation
so,
Step 2:
Second step is equating the exponents
The rule used is:
So in this case
So the solution is:
k=2/3 ..
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
So this means to replace the r you see in 4r^2-8 with 3.
Let's do that:
4(3)^2-8
Now to simplify this just use pemdas or a calculator:
4(9)-8 since 3^2 means 3*3=9
36-8
28
