What is the answer and can you please explain how to do the work.

28in

Step-by-step explanation:

you cut the face in shapes you recognize how to do the area of. Then find the numbers of the shapes that might be missing, then add them all up.

I see a rectangle, square, and square.

A = 10×2

A = 20in

A = 2x2

A = 4

A = 2x2

A = 4

add the areas up you get 28in

x = ±sqrt(10)

step-by-step explanation:

5 - 2x² = -15

subtract 5 from each side

5-5 - 2x² = -15-5

-2x^2   = -20

divide by -2 on each side

-2x^2   /-2= -20/-2

x^2 =10

take the square root on each side

sqrt(x^2 )=±sqrt(10)

x = ±sqrt(10)

check:

5 - 2x² = -15

+sqrt(10)

5 - 2(sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15

-sqrt(10)

5 - 2(-sqrt(10))² = -15

5 -2(10) = -15

5 -20 = -15

-15 = -15
