Answer:

Option a, (x-26)x

Step-by-step explanation:

Length is 26 units less than its width, let the length be x, so the width is x+26, so it's area will be their multiplication,

x(x+26)

since the formula to find area is (length×width)

However thing to note, if you assume the width to be x, the the length will be (x-26), so here the area becomes (x-26)x

since here the length is less than width, (x-26)x is the answer we will use.

shutvik [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Dan bought 8 shirts and 3 pants. This means that the ratio representing the number of shirts to the number of pants that Dan bought is 8/3 = 2.67

Devonte bought 12 shirts and 5 pants. This means that the ratio representing the number of shirts to the number of pants that Devonte bought is 12/5 = 2.4

Therefore, they are not equivalent ratios because the relationship is not exactly the same.

tina solved a quadratic equation and found the solution to be -3/2 and 6 which of the following is equivalent to the quadratic e

Bond [772]

Answer:

$x^2-\dfrac{9}{2}x-9=0$

Step-by-step explanation:

The solutions of a quadratic equation are :

x = -3/2 and x = 6

or we can write it as :

$x+\dfrac{3}{2}=0\ and\ x-6=0\\\\(x+\dfrac{3}{2})(x-6)=0$

Multiplying both values,

$(x+\dfrac{3}{2})(x-6)=0\\\\x^2-6x+\dfrac{3}{2}x-9=0\\\\x^2-\dfrac{9}{2}x-9=0$

Hence, the required quadratic equation is $x^2-\dfrac{9}{2}x-9=0$ .
