Answer:
x = -10
Step-by-step explanation:
x + 75 + x + 125 = 180
2x + 200 = 180
2x = -20
x = -10
(In this problem a negative number is okay because the end value will be a whole number still.)
Answer:
I AM THINKING THAT THE ANSWER IS I+DON'T+KNOW=I DON'T KNOW
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagoras was the Greek Scholar that caused Mathematics
I'm assuming you're looking for the dimensions of the plot. I'm going with that. ;) If the length of the plot is 5 meters longer than the width, then L = w + 5. The area for a rectangle is L*w, and we have an area value of 20,000 so our formula is 20000=(w+5)(w) and

. We will bring the 20,000 over by subtraction and set the polynomial equal to 0 to factor and solve for w.

Solving for w we get values of w=138.9 and -143.9. Of course the 2 things in math that will never EVER be negative are time and distance/length, so -143.9 is out. Our width is 138.9 and the length is 138.9 + 5 so the length is 143.9. And there you go! Hope that's what you needed!
