Think of it this way: x multiplied by a number that is two more than x is y.
So, look at the factors. 3 and 8 wouldn't work, because 8 is 5 longer than 3. 1 and 24 wouldn't work, because 24 is 23 more than 1. 12 and 2 is also not going to work; 12 is 10 more than 2. What you have left is 4 and 6. 6 is 2 more than 4, and they both multiply to get 24.
So, the correct answer is 6 feet long and 4 feet wide.
3(2x+2)=3x-15
mutiply the bracket by 3
(3)(2x)(3)(2)= 6x+6
6x+6= 3x-15
move 3x to the other side
sign changes from +3x to -3x
6x-3x+6= 3x-3x-15
6x-3x+6= -15
3x+6= -15
move +6 to the other side
sign changes from +6 to -6
3x+6-6= -15-6
3x= -21
divide by 3 for both sides
3x/3= -21/3
x= -7
Answer: x= -7

Answer:
K=3
Step-by-step explanation:
1 - 4K = 4 - 7K + 6
1 - 4K = 10 - 7K
-4K + 7K = 10 - 1
3K = 9
3K/3 = 9/3
K = 3
