The equation that can be used to determine the dimensions of the base of the doghouse is x² + 4x = 21

<h3> What is the equation?</h3>

A quadratic equation is an equation that usually has a single variable and it is raised to the power of 2.

Area of a rectangle = length x width

  • width = x
  • length = 4 + x

x (4 + x) = 21

x² + 4x = 21

The equation in the given form that can be used to determine the possible dimensions of the base of the doghouse will be, 21=4x+x².

<h3>What is the area?</h3>

The space filled by a flat form or the surface of an item is known as the area.

The number of unit squares that cover the surface of a closed-form is the figure's area. Square centimeters and other similar units are used to measure area.

Given data;

Area of rectangular base(A) = 21 square feet

The length is 4 feet more than its width, L=4+x

If x represents the width of the doghouse

The equation in the given form can be used to determine the possible dimensions of the base of the doghouse;

Area of the rectangular base;

A= L × x

A = (4+x)x

21=4x+x²

Hence the obtained equation for the given value will be, 21=4x+x².

Use quadratic formula solve .7x^2 - 28x - 7​
beks73 [17]

Answer:

x = 2 + sqrt(5) or x = 2 - sqrt(5)

Step-by-step explanation using the quadratic formula:

Solve for x over the real numbers:

7 (x^2 - 4 x - 1) = 0

Divide both sides by 7:

x^2 - 4 x - 1 = 0

Add 1 to both sides:

x^2 - 4 x = 1

Add 4 to both sides:

x^2 - 4 x + 4 = 5

Write the left hand side as a square:

(x - 2)^2 = 5

Take the square root of both sides:

x - 2 = sqrt(5) or x - 2 = -sqrt(5)

Add 2 to both sides:

x = 2 + sqrt(5) or x - 2 = -sqrt(5)

Add 2 to both sides:

Answer:  x = 2 + sqrt(5) or x = 2 - sqrt(5)

Identify the initial amount a and the growth factor b in the exponential function.f(t)=1.4^t
vaieri [72.5K]
Initial amount is when no change has happened or when t=0
that iniital amoun tis 1
the growth factor
welll, it grows by 40% each time of previous times

I would say growth factor of 1.4


f(x)=a(b)^t
f(t)=1(1.4)^t
initial amount is 1
grouth factor is 1.4

A rectangle with a length of L and a width of W has a diagonal of 10 inches. Express the perimeter P of the rectangle as a funct
KatRina [158]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The expression which represents the perimeter P of the rectangle as a function of L is:

          Perimeter=2(L+\sqrt{100-L^2})

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The length and width of a rectangle are denoted by L and W respectively.

Also the diagonal of a rectangle is: 10 inches.

We know that the diagonal of a rectangle in terms of L and W are given by:

10=\sqrt{L^2+W^2}

( Since, the diagonal of a rectangle act as a hypotenuse of the right angled triangle and we use the Pythagorean Theorem )

Hence, we have:

10^2=L^2+W^2\\\\i.e.\\\\W^2=100-L^2\\\\W=\pm \sqrt{100-L^2}

But we know that width can't be negative. It has to be greater than 0.

Hence, we have:

W=\sqrt{100-L^2}

Now, we know that the Perimeter of a rectangle is given by:

Perimeter=2(L+W)

Here we have:

Perimeter=2(L+\sqrt{100-L^2})
