If a field is 900 meters squared and one side is twice as big as the other how big is each side
Set it up as an equation.
3x-1=x+5
Now solve for x.
Add 1 to both sides and subtract x from both sides to isolate the x variable.
2x=6
Solve for x.
x=3
<span>1.25 = 0.75x + 50
0.75x = 1.25 - 50
0.75x = -48.75
x = -48.75 / 0.75
x = 65</span>
