Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
4−(2x+4)=5
4-2x - 4 =5
-2x = 5
x= -5/2 = -2.5
Answer:
4 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can consider the orignial square's sides to be x, so area of the original figure: 
The new rectangle's sides will be x and x+8, so the area of the new figure will be x^2+8x.
We know that the new area is 3 times the old one. So our equation will be:
x^2+8x=3x^2
our answer will be x=4.
Therfore, the length of the side of the old flower bed is 4 ft.
Answer: $2936.27
Step-by-step explanation:
Present value = $1663
Rate = 5.5%
Time(n) = 19years
Future value= PV(1+r)^n
= 1663(1+5.5%)^19
= 1663(1.055)^19
=1663 × 2.766
=4599.86
Interest = Future value - Present value
= $4599 - $1663
= 2936
Answer:
side of base, a = 10.1 inches, height, h = 40.1 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of rectangular solid, V = 4096 cubic inches
Let the side of base is a and the height is h.

surface area of the solid

So, h = 40.2 inches
Answer:
the lenght of the rectangle is five more than the width
