12 = x² - x
12 - 12 = x² - x - 12
0 = x² - x - 12
x² - x - 12 = 0
x = <u>-(-1) +/- √((-1)² - 4(1)(-12))</u>
2(1)
x = <u>1 +/- √(1 + 48)</u>
2
x = <u>1 +/- √(49)
</u> 2
x = <u>1 +/- 7</u>

x = 0.5 +/- 3.5
x = 0.5 + 3.5 x = 0.5 - 3.5
x = 4 x = -3

Answer:
perimeter: 48in.
area: 144in.
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter: 12+12+12+12= 48
Area: 12 x 12= 144
Firstly, add 2 to both sides of the equation: 
Next, multiply both sides by 5/3: 
Next, square root both sides: 
Lastly, factor out i (i = √-1) and <u>your answer will be
</u>
I assume you mean:
P=m/(1+rt) multiply both sides by (1+rt)
P(1+rt)=m perform indicated multiplication on left side
P+Prt=m subtract P from both sides
Prt=m-P divide both sides by Pr
t=(m-P)/(Pr)
