3 0

Answer:

B. 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation in question is not well written. Let the equation be;

x²+12x+5 = 0

In order to know what number should be added to both sides of the equation, we will take the square of the half of coefficient of x as shown;

Coefficient of x = 12

Half of 12 = 1/2(12) = 6

Square of 6 = 6² = 36

Hence the required number to add to both sides of the equation by completing the square method is 36

Paladinen [302]

Answer:

Length = 45 m

Width = 185 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Perimeter of rectangular rug = 460 m

width of the rug is five meters more than 4 times the length

To find:

Width and length of rug = ?

Solution:

Let the length = l m

As per given statement,

Width = 4l+5 m

Formula for perimeter of a rectangle = 2\times (Length +Width)

460=2\times (l+4l+5)\\\Rightarrow 230 = 5l+5\\\Rightarrow l = \dfrac{225}{5} = 45\ m

Width = 4l+5 m

Width = 4\times 45+5 = 185\ m

So, the answer is:

<em>Length = 45 m</em>

<em>Width = 185 m</em>

<em></em>
