Answer:

actual length of the second wall is 43.2 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the actual length of the second wall

Write measurements in ratios with feet to inches:

First wall: 12 : 2.5 = 12/2.5

Second wall: x : 9 = x/9

Equate the two fractions and solve for x:

12/2.5 = x/9

Multiply both sides by 9: 43.2 = x

Therefore, the actual length of the second wall is 43.2 ft

Answer:

x = 8 ± 2i $\sqrt{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x² - 16x + 60 = - 12 ( subtract 60 from both sides )

x² - 16x = - 72

To complete the square

add ( half the coefficient of the x- term )² to both sides

x² + 2(- 8)x + 64 = - 72 + 64, thus

(x - 8)² = - 8 ( take the square root of both sides )

x - 8 = ± $\sqrt{-8}$ = ± 2i $\sqrt{2}$ ( add 8 to both sides )

x = 8 ± 2i $\sqrt{2}$
