Hey school wishes to form three sides of a rectangular playground using 240 m of fencing. The playground border is the school building so the fourth side does not need fencing. One of the sides has a length X. Find a function that gives the area A(x) of the playground in square meters in terms of X.

the 2 figures are congruent bc if you reflect abcd over the y axis then over the d axis the figures overlap

x = 2

step-by-step explanation:

if sr parallel to ba then the sides bc and ac are in proportion, that is

= ← substitute values

= ( cross- multiply )

27x = 6(4x + 1)

27x = 24x + 6 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

3x = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 2
