Answer: Let length = 2x + 3
Let width = x
Area = 54 ft2
length × width = Area
x(2x + 3) = 54
2x2 + 3x = 54
2x2 + 3x - 54 = 0
(2x - 9)(x + 6) = 0
x = 9/2 and x = -6
x = 4.5 and x = -6
We accept x = 4.5 because length cannot be a negative value. Substituting this value into the dimensions:
width = 4.5 ft
length = 2(4.5) + 3 = 9 + 3 = 12 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B: $2.50
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: form an equation
126 = 12(8 + x)
Step 2: isolate the x
126/12 = 8 + x
126/12 - 8 = x
Step 3: solve
10.5 - 8 = x
2.5 = x = raise per hour

Hello,
i would go for A)
take it as a guess
Let's solve this problem step-by-step.
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
Let's first establish that triangle BCD is a right-angle triangle.
Therefore, we can use Pythagoras theorem to find BC and solve this problem. Pythagoras theorem is displayed below:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
Where c = hypotenus of right-angle triangle
Where a and c = other two sides of triangle
Now we can solve the problem by substituting the values from the problem into the Pythagoras theorem as displayed below:
Let a = BC
b = DC = 24
c = DB = 26
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
a^2 + 24^2 = 26^2
a^2 = 26^2 - 24^2
a = square root of ( 26^2 - 24^2 )
a = square root of ( 676 - 576 )
a = square root of ( 100 )
a = 10
Therefore, as a = BC, BC = 10.
If we want to check our answer, we can substitute the value of ( a ) from our answer in conjunction with the values given in the problem into the Pythagoras theorem. If the left-hand side is equivalent to the right-hand side, then the answer must be correct as displayed below:
a = BC = 10
b = DC = 24
c = DB = 26
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
10^2 + 24^2 = 26^2
100 + 576 = 676
676 = 676
FINAL ANSWER:
Therefore, BC is equivalent to 10.
