Begin by factoring 2 out of 2x^2 - 2x - 12 equals 0:
2(x^2 - x - 6) = 0
2(x - 3)(x + 2) = 0. 2 is never zero, but x-3 and x+2 can each be set = to 0:
This results in x = 3 and x = -2. The equation is true for these two x-values.
15/60 simplified is 1/4
1/4 is not equal to 3/4
Formula for perimeter of a rectangle: P = 2W + 2L
Here, P = 2(x-3 ) cm + 2(3x+7) cm = 2x - 6 + 6x + 14 (cm)
Combine like terms: 8x + 8 cm (simplest form) This is the perimeter.
Now let x = 4: P(x=4) = 8(4) + 8 cm = 40 cm
This equation could represent the relationship e=8.75h
