Answer:
x=3
Explanation:
Let's write an equation for the area of this figure.
This figure can be divided into 2 rectangles, a vertical and horizontal rectangle.
Area of rectangle= length× breadth
Area of vertical rectangle= 6x
Length of horizontal rectangle= (7 -x) cm
Area of horizontal rectangle= x(7-x)
Since total area= 30 cm^2,
6x+ x(7-x)= 30
6x +7x -x^2= 30 (expand)
-x^2 +13x-30= 0 (bring all terms to one side)
x^2 -13x +30= 0 (divide by -1)
(x -10)(x -3)= 0 (factorise)
x -10= 0 or x -3= 0
x= 10 or x= 3
(reject)
We reject x=10 since from the diagram, x cm is less than 6cm.
<u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>1</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
>> -3 (3 - x) = 2x + 5
>> -3 × (3 - x) = 2x + 5
>> -9 + 3x = 2x + 5
>> 3x - 2x = 9 + 5
>> x = 14
<u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
>> -6 - 9p = 3p
>> -9p - 3p = 6
>> -12p = 6
>> p = -1/2
<u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>3</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
>> -5 (-4 - a) = 3a + 8
>> -5 × (-4 - a) = 3a + 8
>> 20 + 5a = 3a + 8
>> 5a - 3a = 8 - 20
>> 2a = -12
>> a = -12 / 2
>> a = -6
<u>Solution</u><u> </u><u>4</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>
>> s - 6 = -5s
>> s + 5s = 6
>> 6s = 6
>> s = 6 / 6
>> s = 1
