(10+2x)(8+2x) = 120
4x^2 + 36x + 80 = 120
x^2 + 9x + 20 = 30
x^2 + 9x - 10 = 0
(x+10)(x-1) = 0
x = 1 inch dimension
Remark
It looks like all you want is question 6. If that is the case, there are two ways to do it.
Algebra
<u>First answer</u>
abs(b - 22) = 5 Equate to + 5
b - 22 = 5 Add 22 to both sides.
b = 5 + 22
b = 27
<u>Second Answer</u>
Equate to - 5
b - 22 = -5
b = 22 - 5
b = 17
Method Two
<u>Graph the question</u>
The graph y = abs(b - 22) is shown below in red.
The values of y when y =5 are shown in blue.
This sounds like simple addition & subtraction.
Total revenue = $3,000
Cost of goods = $1,500
Total expenses = $500
Profit = x
x = 3,000 - 1,500 + 500
x = 3,000 - 2000
x = 1,000
Profit for the business is $1,000
The equation of the line is y = 3x + 6
<h3>What are linear equations?</h3>
Linear equations are equations that have constant average rates of change.
Note that the constant average rates of change can also be regarded as the slope or the gradient
<h3>How to determine the
equation of the line?</h3>
The given parameters are
Slope, m = 3
y-intercept, c = 6
A linear equation is represented as
y = slope * x + y-intercept
i.e.
y = mx + c
So, we have
y = 3x + 6
Hence. the linear equation is y = 3x + 6
