Answer:

A. 5x^2 - 2x - 12 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The base is x feet.

The height is 2 less that 5 times the base.

The height is 5x - 2.

The area is 12.

The area is base * height / 2.

area = bh/2

area = x * (5x - 2) = 12

5x^2 - 2x = 12

5x^2 - 2x - 12 = 0

Answer:

{5x}^{2}  - 2x - 24 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

area \: a =  \frac{base \times height}{2} =  \frac{bh}{2}

let b = x and h = (5x - 2) then

a  =  \frac{x(5x - 2)}{2}  =  12 {ft}^{2} \\ a =  \frac{ {5x}^{2}  - 2x}{2}  = 12 {ft }^{2}  \\ a =  2 \times   \frac{ {5x}^{2}  - 2x}{2}  = 12 {ft}^{2}  \times 2 \\ a =  {5x}^{2}  - 2x = 24 {ft}^{2} \\ a =  {5x}^{2}  - 2x - 24 = 0
