This is a system of equations. We know that if L is length, L=x+5, and area=L*w, where w=x. So, 2+5x=(x+5)x therefore 2+5x=x^2+5x. Subtracting 5x from both sides, x^2=2, therefore x=sqrt(2). So, the width is sqrt(2) and length=sqrt(2)+5

Find the value of x.
olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In \triangle BAC, \: DE || AC

Hence, by basic proportionality theorem:

\frac{x + 2}{x}  =  \frac{3}{2}  \\  \\  \therefore \: 2(x + 2) = 3x \\ \therefore \:2x + 4 = 3x \\ \therefore \:4 = 3x - 2x \\ \therefore \:4 = x \\  \huge \red { \boxed{\therefore \:x = 4}}
