Answer:
Area of rectangle:
4
12
Step-by-step explanation:
rectangle area = length * width
trapezium area = (upper base + lower base) * height / 2
2x * (x -1) + 3 = ( (x-1) + (2x+2)) * x / 2
2x^2 - 2x + 3 = ( 3x + 1) *x /2
2x^2 -2x + 3 = (3x^2 + x) / 2
*2 *2
4x^2 - 4x + 6 = 3x^2 + x
-3x^2 - 3x^2
x^2 -4x +6 = x
-x -x
x^2 - 5x +6 = 0
factor
(x - 2) (x -3) = 0
x -2 = 0 or x - 3 = 0
x = 2. x = 3
So the value of x can be 2 or 3
x = 2
2(2) * (2-1)
= 4 *1
= 4
x = 3
2(3) * (3-1)
= 6 * 2
= 12
