The formula to find the perimeter of a rectangle is P= 2(l+w). By substituting what we now knowin to the equation:
•42=2(l+(2/5l)). We can have width represented at (2/5l) because it’s now 2/5 of the length. Now add them together to get a single coefficient for l.
•42= 2(7/5l). Multiplying 7/5 by 2.
42= (14/5l). Multiplying both sides by the reciprocal of 14/5, which is 5/14, to get l by itself.
•l= 15.
Now that we now know the value of l, we know that the length is 15m. To find the width of the answer, we then multiply 15 by 2/5, which equals 6. Therefore, the only third option is correct because the length is 15m and the width is 6m.
145.95 - 2x = -4.05
subtract -145.95 from both side of the equation
-2x = -4.05 - 145.95
-2x = -150
Divide both sides by -2
-2x/2 = -150/2
x = 75

Answer:
(x - 8)(x + 3)
Step-by-step explanation:
x² - 5x - 24
Consider the factors of - 24 which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term (- 5)
The factors are - 8 and + 3 , since
- 8 × + 3 = - 24 and - 8 + 3 = - 5
Use these factors to split the x- term
x² - 8x + 3x - 24 ( factor the first/second and third/fourth terms )
= x(x - 8) + 3(x - 8) ← factor out (x - 8) from each term
= (x - 8)(x + 3) ← in factored form
