Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

(10x - 20) + (6x + 8) = 180

16x - 12 = 180

16x = 192

x = 12

Hope this helped! :)

X=twelve because you do the opposite of the other number then multiply or divide

The dragons would have to speed up to balance out the time that they slowed down.

The instantaneous rates of changes are all the individual speeds at given times. If you have some that are slow, you will need to have just as many that are fast to balance it out and ensure they have the correct average speed.

<h3>Answer: 14x - 8</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

I'll use the quadratic formula to find the roots or x intercepts. This slight detour allows us to factor without having to use guess-and-check methods.

The equation is of the form ax^2+bx+c = 0

a = 12
b = -11
c = -5

This leads to...

$x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(-11)\pm\sqrt{(-11)^2-4(12)(-5)}}{2(12)}\\\\x = \frac{11\pm\sqrt{361}}{24}\\\\x = \frac{11\pm19}{24}\\\\x = \frac{11+19}{24} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{11-19}{24}\\\\x = \frac{30}{24} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-8}{24}\\\\x = \frac{5}{4} \ \text{ or } \ x = -\frac{1}{3}$

Now use those roots to form these steps

$x = \frac{5}{4} \ \text{ or } \ x = -\frac{1}{3}\\\\4x = 5 \ \text{ or } \ 3x = -1\\\\4x - 5 =0 \ \text{ or } \ 3x+1 = 0\\\\(4x-5)(3x+1) = 0$

Refer to the zero product property for more info.

Therefore, the original expression factors fully to (4x-5)(3x+1)

Use the FOIL rule to expand it out and you should get 12x^2-11x-5 again.

----------------------------------------------

We did that factoring so we could find the side lengths of the rectangle.

I'm using the fact that area = length*width

L = length = 4x-5
W = width = 3x+1

The order of length and width doesn't matter.

From here, we can then compute the perimeter of the rectangle

P = 2(L+W)

P = 2(4x-5+3x+1)

P = 2(7x-4)

P = 14x - 8
