I always prefer factoring, if there are simple factors.
There are simple factors here.
x² + 11x + 18 = 0
(x + 2) (x + 9) = 0
The left side is zero if either factor is zero.
First factor:
x + 2 = 0
<u>x = -2</u>
Second factor:
x + 9 = 0
<u>x = -9 </u>
The second choice is correct
X= number of tubs Kasey sold
3x= number tubs sister sold
Add the number sold by Kasey and her sister to equal the total sold (88).
x + 3x= 88
combine like terms
4x= 88
divide both sides by 4
x= 22 number tubs Kasey sold
Number Sold by Sister
3x= 3(22)= 66
CHECK:
x + 3x= 88
22 + 3(22)= 88
22 + 66= 88
88= 88
ANSWER: Kasey sold 22 tubs and her sister sold 66 tubs.
Hope this helps! :)
Urface area = area of the square + area of the 4 triangles
= 6*6 + 4(1/2*6*6)
= 36 + 4 * 18 = 108 sq cms
