Length: 2x-1, width: x

A=LW

120=x(2x-1)   120=2x^2-x   0=2x^2-x-120, Factor (x-8)(2x+15)=0

x=8 is the width and 15 is the length

Allisa [31]

Answer:

$86 is she spending on the party.

Step-by-step explanation:

As per the statement: A company employee is planning a promotion party with her friends. She orders 6 pizzas for $7 each, 2 bowls of mixed salad for $12 each, and 4 cases of assorted soft drinks for $5 each.

⇒ 6 pizzas for $7 each

Total cost for 6 pizzas = 6 \times 7 = \$42

2 bowls of mixed salad for $12 each.

Total cost for 2 bowls = 2 \times 12 = \$24

and

4 cases of assorted soft drinks for $5 each.

Total cost for 4 cases of assorted soft drinks = 4 \times 5 = \$20

She spending on party = Total cost for 6 pizzas + Total cost for 2 bowls + Total cost for 4 cases of assorted soft drinks

Substitute the values we get;

Total cost she spending on party = \$42 + \$24 + \$20 =\$86
