First find the areas of the two separate rectangles where:
Area of rectangle = length x width
Area of the small rectangle = x(x–4)
Area of small rectangle = [tex]x^{2} -4x[/tex]
Area of big rectangle = (x–2)(2x+x)
Area of big rectangle = (x–2)(3x)
Area of big rectangle = [tex]3x^{2} -6x[/tex]
The total area of the compound shape is 36, therefore:
[tex]3x^{2} -6x +x^{2} -4x=36[/tex]
[tex]4x^{2} -10x-36=0[/tex] (collecting like-terms and by bringing the +36 to the other side)
By dividing this by 2, you get:
[tex]2(2x^{2} -5x-18)=0[/tex]
[tex]2x^{2} -5x-18=0[/tex]
To find the length of AB (x), solve the quadratic by either factorising, completing the square or by using the quadratic formula, etc to solve for x.
[tex]2x^{2} -5x-18=0[/tex]
[tex](2x-9)(x+2)=0[/tex]
[tex]x=\frac{9}{2}[/tex]
[tex]x=-2[/tex]
However, a length cannot be negative, so x must be [tex]\frac{9}{2}[/tex] or 4.5cm, so length AB = 4.5cm.
Hope this helps :)

Shape 2 and 3

what is 4(2x+3) simplified using distributive property
Answer:
8x +12
Step-by-step explanation:
The outside factor is applied to each term inside parentheses:
4(2x +3) = 4(2x) +4(3) = 8x +12
[tex]\huge\boxed{Hi\:there!}[/tex]
To simplify this expression, we should use the Distributive Property.
It states that
a(b+c)=ab+ac
Let's use it:
4(2x+3)
8x+12
That's the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:
the actual man is 16 times bigger than drawing.
If x = 1 and y = 2 is a solution to the simultaneous equation ax + by = 2 and bx + a^(2)y = 10, find the possible values of a and b.
Answer:
a = - 2, [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex] , b = 2, - [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Since x = 1, y = 2 is a solution to the equations , then substitute these values into the 2 equations and solve for a and b
a + 2b = 2 → (1)
b + 2a² = 10 → (2)
In (1) subtract 2b from both sides
a = 2 - 2b → (3)
Substitute a = 2 - 2b into (2)
b + 2(2 - 2b)² = 10 ← expand parenthesis using FOIL
b + 2(4 - 8b + 4b²) = 10 ( simplify left side )
b + 8 - 16b + 8b² = 10 ( subtract 10 from both sides )
8b² - 15b - 2 = 0
Consider the factors of the product of the coefficient of the b² term and the constant term which sum to give the coefficient of the b- term
product = 8 × - 2 = - 16 and sum = - 15
The factors are - 16 and + 1
Use these factors to split the b- term
8b² - 16b + b - 2 = 0 ( factor first/second and third/fourth terms )
8b(b - 2) + 1(b - 2) = 0 ← factor out (b - 2) from each term
(b - 2)(8b + 1) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for b
b - 2 = 0 ⇒ b = 2
8b + 1 = 0 ⇒ 8b = - 1 ⇒ b = - [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]
Substitute these values into (3) and evaluate for a
b = 2 ⇒ a = 2 - 2(2) = 2 - 4 = - 2
b = - [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] ⇒ a = 2 - 2(- [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex] ) = 2 + [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = 2 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{9}{4}[/tex]
The possible values of a and b are 8, -3 or 9/4 , -1/8 respectively.
What is an equation ?An equation is a combination of different variables, in which two mathematical expressions are equal to each other.
The given equations are,
ax + by = 2 (1)
and bx + a²y = 10 (2)
Also, x = 1 and y = 2 are the solution of the equation,
Substitute x = 1 and y = 2in equation (1),
a(1) + b(2) = 2
a + 2b = 2 (3)
Further substitute x = 1 and y = 2 in equation (2),
b(1) + a²(2) = 10
2a² + b = 10 (4)
By solving equation (3) and (4),
The possible values of a are 8 and 9/4.
And possible value of b are -3 and -1/8.

A Freight Train Travels 144 miles in 6 hours. How Far will it travel in 15 hours?
_________________
For this problem I will show you 2 methods.
[tex]{\huge{\boxed{\mathbb{METHOD\:ONE}}[/tex]
Cross multiplication, cross multiplication involves algebra to use.
Let x be our answer for this problem. Here is our it would look like
[tex]\frac{6}{144}=\frac{15}{x}[/tex], now we will cross multiply, here is what it'd look like now.
[tex]6x=2160[/tex], then do simple algebra and divide both sides by 6. and then we get [tex]x=360[/tex] miles in 15 hours.
_________________
[tex]{\huge{\boxed{\mathbb{METHOD\:TWO}}[/tex]
For method two we can look for the unit rate. Also known as our rate for one.
divide 144 by 6 and we get 24, then multiply it by 15 and we get 360.

Three times a number is at most negative six.
(A) 3x ≤ -6
(B) 3x < -6
(C) 3x ≥ -6
(D) 3x > -6
Answer:
I believe the answer is A
Step-by-step explanation:
three times x can be equal to, but never greater than -6
Answer:
A. 3x ≤ -6
Step-by-step explanation:
the sentence ‘3x is at most -6
means that the most 3x is allowed to be is -6
it can be -6 or any number less than -6
So, the phrase 3x is at most -6
’ means ‘

The half life of a radioactive substance is 10 years. If 64 grams are placed in a
container, how much will remain after 50 years?
Answer:
2 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
50 years is 5 half lives as 1 half life is 10 years.
64 divide 2 = 32-1 half life
32 divide 2 =16-2nd half life
16 divide 2 = 8-3rd half life
8 divide 2 = 4-4th half life
4 divide 2 = 2-5th half life
This means we will have 2 grams left of the radioactive substance after 50 years.

While moving up on the rope-way, I noticed that the seat place in the opposite direction was numbered as 95. Behind it was number 0, then 1, 2 and so on. My seat place was numbered as 66. What number should I meet when I am in the middle of my one-way route?
The seat in the middle of the one-way route is 34
The seats are given as:
[tex]First= 0[/tex] --- the first seat behind the seat number 95
[tex]Last= 66[/tex] --- my seat
The seat number half-way would be:
[tex]Half = \frac{Last - First}{2} + 1[/tex]
This gives
[tex]Half = \frac{66- 0}{2} + 1[/tex]
Subtract 0 from 66
[tex]Half = \frac{66}{2} + 1[/tex]
Divide 66 by 2
[tex]Half = 33 + 1[/tex]
Add 33 and 1
[tex]Half = 34[/tex]
Hence, the seat in the middle of the one-way route is 34

Answer is 1
cuz nearest whole number, just check the next number that is nearest, that in this case is the decimal 1, hence, if it's 5 or above add a one to the whole number, if not then just write it as it is. in this case the nearest number is less than five so we just write it as 1.0000 or just 1
