Part 1

(x+5)(x+10) - 50 = 126

Other answers are possible.

-------------

Explanation:

The old width was 5, but then it increases to x+5. The old length was 10, but now it's x+10.

The area of any rectangle is length times width.

So the area of the larger rectangle is (x+5)(x+10). Subtract off the old area of 5*10 = 50 and we get (x+5)(x+10) - 50 as the area of the L shape. Set this equal to 126 to finish setting up the equation. This is one possible answer out of many others. This is because we could expand out the (x+5)(x+10) into x^2+10x+5x+50 or simplify that to x^2+15x+50, as two possible options.

==========================================================

Part 2

x = 6

-------------

Explanation:

Solve the equation we set up in the previous part

(x+5)(x+10) - 50 = 126

x^2+10x+5x+50-50 = 126

x^2+15x = 126

x^2+15x-126 = 0

Apply the quadratic formula from here

$x = \frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{-(15)\pm\sqrt{(15)^2-4(1)(-126)}}{2(1)}\\\\x = \frac{-15\pm\sqrt{729}}{2}\\\\x = \frac{-15\pm27}{2}\\\\x = \frac{-15+27}{2} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-15-27}{2}\\\\x = \frac{12}{2} \ \text{ or } \ x = \frac{-42}{2}\\\\x = 6 \ \text{ or } \ x = -21\\\\$

Another method you could use is factoring, so you could say:

x^2+15x-126 = 0

(x-6)(x+21) = 0

x-6 = 0 or x+21 = 0

x = 6 or x = -21

The issue with this is that it may take a while to do this trial and error approach.

Whichever method you used, you'll end up with two solutions. One of those solutions doesn't make sense though. We can't have a negative length or distance value, so we ignore x = -21.

The only practical solution is x = 6

If x = 6, then the old height goes from 5 to x+5 = 6+5 = 11

If x = 6, then the old length goes from 10 to x+10 = 6+10 = 16

The new larger rectangle is 11*16 = 176 sq ft, in which we subtract off the 50 sq ft to get 176-50 = 126 sq ft, and this matches with the 126 given to us. Therefore, the answer is confirmed.

Answer from: Quest

answer:

the position of equilibrium will shift to the left.

step-by-step explanation:

the general equation for the dissociation of a weak base is

b + h₂o ⇌ bh⁺ + oh⁻

according to le châtelier's principle, when a stress is applied to a system at equilibrium, the system will respond in a way that tends to relieve the stress.

if you apply a stress by adding more bh⁺ or oh⁻, the system will respond by moving in a direction that gets rid of the added ions.

the position of equilibrium will shift to the left, forming more of the undissociated base.
