Distribute to eliminate the parenthesis
x^2 + 2x + 6x + 12 = 60
Combine like terms
x^2 + 8x + 12 = 60
Subtract 60 from both sides
x^2 + 8x - 48 = 0
Factor the equation
(x+12)(x-4)=0
x+12=0
x+4=0
x= -12 and -4
Correct answers
1). first option
4) last option
------------------
Given that, the length of the garden is 2(x+6)feet and width is 3.5x feet.
So, length : l = 2(x+6) and width = 3.5x.
To find the fence of the garden we need to find the perimeter of the rectangle.
Formula to find the perimeter is:
p = 2l + 2b
= 2*2(x+6) + 2*3.5x
= 4(x+6) + 7x By multiplication.
= 4x + 24 + 7x By distribution property.
= 11x + 24 Combining the like terms.
So, he need to buy 11x + 24 feet fencing.
Hope this helps you!
Answer:
13 cm × 12 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagonal of the top or bottom faces of the box is the hypotenuse of a triangle with legs 12 cm and 5 cm. The Pythagorean theorem tells you that diagonal length is ...
d = √(12² +5²) = √(144 +25) = √169 = 13 . . . cm
The width of the divider is 13 cm.
The height of the divider is shown as 12 cm.
The dimensions of the dividing rectangle are 13 cm by 12 cm.
