1. Regroup terms
x(x+5)=104
2. Expand
x^2+5x=104
3. Move all terms to one side
x^2+5x-104=0
4. Factor x^2+5x-104
(x-8)(x+13)=0
5. Solve for x
x=8 or x=-13
Since x<0 is not possible in this case, x=8
6. Finding the dimensions
We know that one side has to be x+5, and now that we know x:
8+5=13
13*8=104
The dimensions are 13 and 8, have a nice day :D
Answer:
Using the Pythagorean Theorem:
distance^2 = 72^2 + 65^2
distance^2 = 5,184 + 4,225
distance^2 = 9,409
distance = 97 yards
"round-trip" distance = 97 * 2 = 194 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
you first make an equation of 5/6x = 10, then divide 5/6 on both sides to get x = 12
A I am pretty sure. I apologize if I am incorrect.
