The square has area 8*8=64, the rectangle has area 7*4=28, and the triangle has area 7*6/2=21. Their sum is 64+28+21=113.
Answer:
135
Step-by-step explanation:
2 gallons * $2.58 per gallon = $5.16 expenses (total spent)
2 gallons * 16 cups = 32 total servings
32 cups * $0.75 per cup = $24 gross revenue (total income)
$24 - $5.16 = $19.84 net revenue (profit)
So I'm going to assume that this question is asking for <u>non extraneous solutions</u>, or solutions that are found in the equation <em>and</em> are valid solutions when plugged back into the equation. So firstly, subtract 2 on both sides of the equation:

Next, square both sides:

Next, subtract x and add 2 to both sides of the equation:

Now we are going to be factoring by grouping to find the solution(s). Firstly, what two terms have a product of 6x^2 and a sum of -5x? That would be -3x and -2x. Replace -5x with -2x - 3x:

Next, factor x^2 - 2x and -3x + 6 separately. Make sure that they have the same quantity on the inside of the parentheses:

Now you can rewrite the equation as 
Now, apply the Zero Product Property and solve for x as such:

Now, it may appear that the answer is C, however we need to plug the numbers back into the original equation to see if they are true as such:

Since both solutions hold true when x = 2 and x = 3, <u>your answer is C. x = 2 or x = 3.</u>
