SOLUTION:
Let whole number = x
x + 2x^2 = 21
2x^2 + x - 21 = 0
2x^2 + 7x - 6x - 21 = 0
x ( 2x + 7 ) - 3 ( 2x + 7 ) = 0
( 2x + 7 ) ( x - 3 ) = 0
2x + 7 = 0
2x = - 7
x = - 7 / 2
OR
x - 3 = 0
x = 3
ANSWER:
Therefore, as 3 is a whole number while - 7 / 2 isn't a whole number, the whole number must be 3.
Hope this helps! :)

Answer:
4/5 acre
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume your allocations are ...
goats: 3/5 acre
pigs: 1/5 acre
llamas: 2/5 acre
2 acres is 10/5 acres, so the remaining area is ...
10/5 -3/5 -1/5 -2/5 = (10 -3 -1 -2)/5 = 4/5
4/5 acre is allocated to horses.
Answer:
315
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told in the question that each fret marker is in the shape of a parallelogram
The area of a parallelogram is given as
Base × Height.
Each of the bottoms of the fret markers has the following values
Base = 52.5mm
Height =6 mm
The area of each of the bottom fret markers
= Base × Height
= 52.5 × 6
= 315
Therefore, the area of each of the bottom fret markers without unit is 315
