well...
15 x 20 = 300
300+85 = 385
you can get 20 watches for $385
You found CD from the Pythagorean theorem to be ...
... CD = √(5² -2²) = √21
Since triangle ADC ~ triangle ACB, the ratios of corresponding sides are the same:
... AC/AD = AB/AC
... AB = AC²/AD
... AB = 5²/2 = 12.5 . . . . . . . the base of the overall triangle
_____
Then the area (A) is ...
... A = (1/2)bh
... A = (1/2)(12.5)(√21) ≈ 28.64 square units
_____
As you see here, the altitude of a right triangle divides it into three similar triangles. From smallest to largest, they are ...
... ADC ~ CDB ~ ACB
You can figure this using AAA similarity, since the smallest and largest triangles listed above share an acute angle vertex (∠A). That, together with the right angle, means all angles are congruent. After that, then you know ∠ACD ≅ ∠CBD, so you can show the middle sized triangle is similar to the other two.

Simplifying
2x + 13 = 0
Reorder the terms:
13 + 2x = 0
Solving
13 + 2x = 0
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-13' to each side of the equation.
13 + -13 + 2x = 0 + -13
Combine like terms: 13 + -13 = 0
0 + 2x = 0 + -13
2x = 0 + -13
Combine like terms: 0 + -13 = -13
2x = -13
Divide each side by '2'.
x = -6.5
Simplifying
x = -6.5
