Answer:
x=18
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to find the areas of the rectangles
1st rectangle
A= l*w
A = (2x+4)*9
= 18x+36
2nd rectangle
A = l*w
= 15*(3x-30)
= 45x-450
Since the area of the rectangles are equal, we set these two equations equal
18x+36 = 45x-450
Subtract 18x from each side
18x-18x+36 = 45x-18x-450
36 = 27x-450
Add 450 to each side
36+450 =27x
486 = 27x
Divide by 27 on each side
486/27 = 27x/27
18=x

</span>2x+2 = 6
2x = 4
x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
given
current (older) fridge
electricity charges= $17 monthly
maintenance costs= $220
let the number of months be x
and the total cost be yo
the expression for the cost for the old fridge is
yo=220+17x---------1
New fridge
electricity charges= $6 monthly
costs= $1,050
let the number of months be x
and the total cost be yn
the expression for the cost for the old fridge is
yn= 1050+6x---------2
Hence the system of equation for the situation is
yo=220+17x---------1
yn= 1050+6x---------2
Step two
for 10 years there are 12*10= 120 months
put x= 120 in both expressions and compare the total
yo=220+17(120)---------1
yo=220+2040
yo=$2,260
yn= 1050+6(120)---------2
yn=1050+720
yn=$1770
<u><em>Based on the analysis it will be less expensive to get the new fridge, hence buying the new fridge is worth it.</em></u>
Its 2 i guess but im not sure
No triangle 60+40=100 which is the same as one side
