Area = length *width
A = x²
3x² = (x+10)(x+12)
3x² = x²+10x+12x+120
3x² = x²+22x+120
3x²-3x² = x²+22x+120-3x²
0 = -2x²+22x+120
Factor to solve for x:
-2(x²-11x-60)
(x+4)(x-15)
x = -4 & x = 15 but we can't have a negative length so we eliminate 4. The length of the square is 15 cm.
Answer:
x + 4y = 4
4y = 4 - x
multiply both sides by 1/4
y = 1/4( 4- x)
y = 1- 1/4x
To do this, simply add the 2 functions-as it says:
(2x+1) + (-3x+4)
2x+1-3x-4
-x-3
Your answer is -x-3
