X(x + 2) = 120sq units
<span>Set it equal to 0 </span>
<span>x^2 + 2x - 120 = 0 </span>
<span>factor </span>
<span>(x + 12)(x - 10) </span>
<span>For the shorter side: </span>
<span>x - 10 = 0 </span>
<span>x = 10 </span>
<span>Now that you have x, solve for the longer side which we said was represented by </span>
<span>x + 2 </span>
<span>10 + 2 = 12 </span>
<span>Proof </span>
<span>A = L x W </span>
<span>120 = 10 x 12 </span>
<span>120 = 120 </span>
<span>true </span>
<span>Our length is 12 and our width is 10</span>
Answer:
C. 10 : 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Attached below
A ton is 2,000 pounds so multiply 2,000 x 18
2,000 x 18 = 36,000 pounds, now add the 42 pounds to the 36,000
36,000 + 42 = 36,042 pounds. Now divide 36,042 by 3
36,042 ÷ 3 = 12,014
Your answer is 12,014 pounds
If you need your answer in tons it's 6.007 tons
Calculations for pounds to tons
12,014 ÷ 2,000 = 6.007
Hope this helps. :)
I believe its B but I'm not completely sure
