Answer:
x = -2
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x^2 + x-72=0
Step-by-step explanation:
x(x+1) =72
Distribute
x^2 +x = 72
Subtract 72 from each side
x^2 +x - 72 = 0
Now this is the equation we can factor
The answer should be 95in^2
Explanation:
You’re essentially just finding the area of all the shapes on the triangle and adding them together.
Area of a triangle = 1/2•b•h
Area of a square = l•w or just s2
The area of the triangles given what we have in the diagram can be found with
1/2•5•7 = 17.5
There are 4 triangles so you multiply 17.5 by 4 which gives 70
The base of the triangle (the square) = 25
70+25=95
Vertical angles are congruent...they are equal....so set them equal to each other and solve for x
6x - 22 = 4x + 2
6x - 4x = 2 + 22
2x = 24
x = 24/2
x = 12 <==
