Answer is b my friend hope it helps if ya need me to explain I can for u:3
Answer:
a = x² + 3x - 40
Step-by-step explanation:
a = l * w
a = (x - 5)(x + 8)
a = x(x + 8) - 5(x + 8)
a = (x² + 8x) + (- 5x - 40)
a = x² + 3x - 40
Answer:
3 metres
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width of the pathway be x
Area: (9+2x)(4+2x)
36 + 8x + 18x + 4x²
4x² + 26x + 36
Increased area is 150:
4x² + 26x + 36 = 150
4x² + 26x - 114 = 0
2x² + 13x - 57 = 0
2x² + 19x - 6x - 57 = 0
x(2x + 19) - 3(2x + 19) = 0
(x - 3)(2x + 19) = 0
x = 3, x = -19/2
0 = 0
The input is an identity: it is true for all values
