A rectangle has a height of 5 and a width of x^2 + 2
Express the area of the entire rectangle, please answer this!!

1-for what value of x is line a parallel to line b 2-for what value of x is line a parallel to line b

Me solve this problem, and someone clearly explain to me how to solve it.1.) use the value of the discriminant to determine if the given trinomials has 2 real solutions, 1 real solution, or no real solutions.a.  x2  − 4x  − 7 = 0b. 4r2  + 11r  − 3 = 0c. 3m2  + 7 = 0d.  t2  + 2t  + 1 = 0

Nick has box brads. he uses 4 brads for the first project. nick let’s b represent the original number of brads and finds that for the second project, the number of brads he uses is 8 more than half the difference of b and 4. write an expression to represent the number of brads he uses for the second project.
