A square piece of paper has an area of x2 square units. A
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

Length of rectangular strip = 12

area of rectangular strip =   2*12 = 24

Area of square =  x^2 = 12^2 = 144

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of square x^2

area of rectangle is given by length * width

Length of rectangular strip = x

width of rectangular strip = 2

area of rectangular strip =  length * width = 2*x = 2x

Area of square piece of paper when  rectangular strip is taken away from it

= Area of square - area of rectangular strip

= x^2 -2x

It is given that Area of square piece of paper when  rectangular strip is taken away from it is 120 square units.

Thus,

x^2 -2x = 120\\=> x^2 -2x -120 = 0\\=> x^2 -12x +10x-120\\=> x(x-12) +10(x-12)\\=> (x+10)(x-12) = 0\\\\

Thus,

either x+10 = 0 or x -12= 0

x = -10 or x = 12

but length cannot  be negative hence neglecting x = -10

hence value of x is 12.

Hence,

Length of rectangular strip = 12

area of rectangular strip =   2*12 = 24

Area of square =  x^2 = 12^2 = 144

Answer:

The factors of  2(x+y)^2-9(x+y)-5 is ((x+y)-5)(2x+2y+1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given polynomial

=>2(x+y)^2-9(x+y)-5

To Find:

The factors of the polynomial =?

Solution:

Lets assume  k = (x+y)

Then 2(x+y)^2-9(x+y)-5 can be written as 2k^2-9k-5

Now by using quadratic formula

k =\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{(b^2-4ac}}{2a}

where

a= 2

b= -9

c= -5

Substituting the values, we get

k =\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{(b^2-4ac)}}{2a}

k =\frac{-(-9) \pm \sqrt{((-9)^2-4(2)(-5)}}{2(2))}

k =\frac{-(-9) \pm \sqrt{(81+40)}}{4}

k =\frac{-(-9) \pm \sqrt{(121)}}{4}

k =\frac{-(-9) \pm 11}}{4}

k= \frac{ 9 \pm 11}{4}

k =  \frac{20}{4}                         k =  \frac{-2}{4}    

k_1 =5                                      k_2 = -\frac{1}{2}

2k^2-9k-5= 2(k-5)(k+\frac{1}{2})

Solving the RHS we get

\frac{2}{2}(k-5)(2k+1)

(k-5)(2k+1)

Substituting k = x+y

((x+y)-5)(2(x+y+1)

((x+y)-5)(2x+2y+1)

Ben and winston ade both selling cookie dough for a fundraiser. Although ben has already sold 10tubs, Winston 
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

On the first day, Ben (B) starts with 10 tubs and Winston (W) starts with 0 tubs.

After the first day, Ben sells 8 tubs per day while Winston sells 9 tubs per day.

Therefore we can write the following equation:  (Where d = number of days)

B = 10 + 8d

W = 0 + 9d = 9d

We are told that eventually they will sell the same amount which means

B = W

This means we can say,

10 + 8d = 9d

If we subtract 8d from both sides we get

10 = d

Therefore it will take 10 days for them to sell the same amount of cookie dough.
