X=side length of a campsite
12x(5+x)=1248 because each campsite has a length of x and there are 12 and from the top of the camp to the water is the 5 yds + a side length and LW=1248
60x+12x^2=1248
12x^2+60x-1248=0
x^2+5-14=0
(x+7)(x-2)=0
x+7=0 or x-2=0
x=-7 or x=2
x=2 because width can't be negative
the width of one campsite is 2 yds
Answer:
no it is not a solution.READ THE WHOLE EXPLANATION! IT WILL HELP WITH THE OTHER PROBLEMS!!!!
Step-by-step explanation:
when something like (1,6) is written consider it as (x,y). in this case, 1 is considered as x, and 6 is considered as y. if you substitute these number for x and x and y, (x =1 and y =6), you'll see that the equation will go from y=x +7, to 6=1+7. Which is not true.
Answer:
5 & 1
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use the quadratic formula to solve this:
Quadratic Formula = 
So we will have 2 answers (roots).
a is the coefficient of x^2 (2)
b is the coefficient of x (-12)
c is the constant (10)
Now, substituting, we get:
x = 
Hence the roots are 5 & 1
