Question: Simplify

.
First off, you <em>never</em> want square roots on the bottom of a fraction, so let's multiply both sides by

to get rid of it. All we have to do from there is simplify!
The 7 In 157 would round it up to 160. I hope this helps!
Answer:
x = -3±sqrt( 5)
Step-by-step explanation:
(x + 3)^2-5=0
Add 5 to each side
(x + 3)^2-5+5=0+5
(x + 3)^2 = 5
Take the square root of each side
sqrt((x + 3)^2 )=±sqrt( 5)
x+3 = ±sqrt( 5)
Subtract 3 from each side
x+3-3 = -3±sqrt( 5)
x = -3±sqrt( 5)
End answer is five hundred and 6
Answer:
length = 17cm, width = 10cm
Step-by-step explanation:
2L + 2w = 54
L = w + 7
Substitute:
2(w + 7) + 2w = 54
2w + 14 + 2w = 54
4w = 40
w = 10
L = 10 + 7 = 17
