The values of x are 2 and -1.
Solving the equation created by substitution listed in the question:
-2x+14=x²-3x+12
Add 2x to both sides:
-2x+14+2x=x²-3x+12+2x
14=x²-1x+12
Subtract 14 from both sides:
14-14=x²-1x+12-14
0=x²-1x-2
Factoring this, we want factors of -2 that sum to -1; -2(1) = -2 and -2+1=-1:
0=(x-2)(x+1)
Using the zero product property, we know that either x-2=0 or x+1=0:
x-2=0
x-2+2=0+2
x=2
x+1=0
x+1-1=0-1
x=-1
The midpoint would be (5,9)
Answer:
42.6cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum total of all the sides of the shape is the perimeter of the shape. Hence;
Perimeter = x+3 + 4 + x+9 + 2x+5
Perimeter = 4x + 21
Given
Area of the figure = 75cm^2
Area = (x+3)(2x+5) + (2x+1)(6)
75 = 2x²+5x+6x+15+12x+6
75 = 2x²+23x+21
2x²+23x+21-75 = 0
2x²+23x-54 = 0
x = -23±√23²-4(2)(-75)/4
x = -23±√529+600/4
x = -12±√1129/4
x = -12+33.6/4
x = 21.6/4
x = 5.4
Recall that;
Perimeter = 4x+21
Perimeter = 4(5.4) + 21
Perimeter = 21.6+21
Perimeter = 42.6cm
Hence the perimeter is 42.6cm
