Suppose a stage for the Lunar New Year festival has a length of 24 feet and a width of 4x + 4 feet. If the area of the stage is 384 square feet, what is the value of x?

The value of x is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The stage is rectangular in shape.

The formula for area of a rectangle is:

Length × Width

Length = 24 feet

Width = 4x + 4 feet

Hence:

384 = (4x + 4) × (24)

384 = 96x + 96

Collect like terms

384 - 96 = 96x

288 = 96x

x = 288/96

x = 3

The value of x is 3

step-by-step explanation:

37/3

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

)=(3)(6x)+(3)(−9)+−8(distribute)

7x+8x+2=18x+−27+−8

(7x+8x)+(2)=(18x)+(−27+−8)(combine like terms)

15x+2=18x+−35

15x+2=18x−35

tep 2: subtract 18x from both sides.

15x+2−18x=18x−35−18x

−3x+2=−35

step 3: subtract 2 from both sides.

−3x+2−2=−35−2

−3x=−37

step 4: divide both sides by -3.
