A game field is 360 feet long. The practice field is 2/5 shorter than the practice field. How long is the game field?feet Explain your reasoning.

The practice field is 144 feet long.

Step-by-step explanation:

360 x 2/5 = 144

(You would multiply these numbers NOT divide!)

To check my math:

2/5 = 0.4

144/360 = 0.4

By doing the above check, I know the two equations are the same. By seeing this I can know that the answer is correct.

there are many solutions.

step-by-step explanation:

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

4x+6=4x^2+10x−4

step 2: subtract 4x^2+10x-4 from both sides.

4x+6−(4x^2+10x−4)=4x^2+10x−4−(4x^2+10x−4)

−4x^2−6x+10=0

step 3: factor left side of equation.

−2(2x+5)(x−1)=0

step 4: set factors equal to 0.

x=-5/2 or x=1
