Step-by-step explanation:
Area of triangle = 1/2 × the width × the length
42 = 1/2(x+3)(2x+8)
42 = 1/2×2×(x+3)(x+4)
42 = (x+3)(x+4)
(x+3)(x+4) = 42
x² + 7x + 12 = 42
x² + 7x + 12 - 42 = 0
x² + 7x - 30 = 0
(x-3)(x+10) = 0
x = 3, -10
x can't be -10 because the width and the length should be only + values
x = 3
he is wrong because 0.1 is also 0.10 greater than 0.09
Answer:
-6
Step-by-step explanation:
-24 divided by 6 is -4, so the fraction would be simplified to -4/1, then change to a whole number and subtract 2, which equals -6.
