Answer:

-6

Step-by-step explanation:

3n = n² - 54

n² - 3n - 54 = 0

n² - 9n + 6n - 54 = 0

n(n - 9) + 6(n - 9) = 0

(n - 9)(n + 6) = 0

n = 9 , -6

hope this helps

3x = x^2 - 54
x^2 - 3x - 54 = 0
(x - 9)(x + 6) = 0
The answer is 9 or -6

The Haynes family is building an addition to their house that includes a new

elixir [45]

Answer:

Part A

$A_{t}=22(12+w)$

Applying Distributive property: $A_{t}=264+22w$

Part B

$A_{t}=660\ ft^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

 Attached is the model that belongs to this exercise (The model was missing)

The formula for calculate the area of a rectangle is:

$A=lw$

Where "l" is the lenght and "w" is the width.

Part A

Notice that the dimensions of the new bathroom are:

$l=22\ ft\\w=12\ ft$

We do not know the width of the new bathroom, but we know that both rooms will have the same length. Knowing this, we can write an expression for the total area of both rooms by using the Distributive Property:

$A_{t}=22(12+w)$

Applying Distributive property:

$A_{t}=264+22w$

Part B

If the width of the bedroom is 18 feet, you need to substitute this value into the expression $A_{t}=264+22w$ in order to find the total square footage of the two rooms:

$A_{t}=264+22w\\\\A_{t}=660\ ft^2$
