Second one tell me if im wrong
13 - (x+2) = 8
subtract 13 from both sides
-(x+2) = -5
divide by -1 to get rid of negative
(x+2) = 5
subtract 2 from both sides
x=3
We know that the area is 20.
Since 20 is a small number: lets list out possible combinations of lengths and widths.
1 * 20
2 * 10
4 * 5
L = 7 + 3w
lets see which on makes sense.
L = 7 + 3w
20 = w7 + 3w^2
3w^2 + 7w -20 = 0
(3w - 10)(w - 2)
w can equal 10/3 or 2.
So the dimensions: are Width = 2 Length = 10
Answer:
x = 12
