(a) 95 = (x+7)*(x-7)
(b) 95 = (x+7)*(x-7)
Expand the brackets:
95 = x² -7x + 7x -49 = x² - 49
Subtract x² from both sides:
95-x² = -49
Subtract 95 from both sides:
-x²=-49-95
-x²= -144
Divide both sides by -1 to get rid of the negative numbers:
-x²/-1=-144/-1
x²=144
Take the square root of 144:
x = ± squareroot of 144
x = 12 or -12
x = 12 because you cannot have a negative age so Trina is 12 years old.
Answer: area is 286.16 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the sand pit is 29.2 feet and the width is 9.8 feet.
L= 29.2 ft
W = 9.8 ft
To find out the area, all we have to do is multiply the lenght by the width:
And do not forget that to calculate the area, all units must be the same and for the area, it is always the unit squared, in this case, feet square or simply (ft²).
A = l*w
A = 29.2 * 9.8 = 286.16 ft²

Answer:
There are 16 track events and 6 field events
x +y = 81 million
let x be the short stop and y be the pitcher
so pitcher (y) gets 2 times what the the shortstop (x) gets so y = 2x
so x + 2x = 81 million
3x = 81
x = 27
the short stop makes 27 million
the pitcher makes 54 million
