Answer:

(-5, -7) and the x-axis

Step-by-step explanation:

when looking for a point that is 7 points away, we are looking for a difference of 7 in either the x-value or the y-value.

[remember: a point is written as (x, y) ]

We know that the x-value is -7, meaning that it is 7 units under the x-axis (meaning that it is 7 units away)

We know that our point, (2 , -7) has the same y-value as (-5, -7), so we are looking for a change in x. The difference (which is the change) between:

-5 and 2 is 7

(2 - (-5) = 2 + 5 = 7)

so, both the x-axis and the point (-5, -7) are 7 units away from (2, -7)

(the other point (-7, 7) is not near (2 , -7) at all--they have a larger difference on both the y-values, the x-values, and the length of if you made a diagonal line)

(I've attached an image to help you visualize what we're doing)

hope this helps!!

Answer:

a) 5000 m²

b) A(x) = x(200 -2x)

c) 0 < x < 100

Step-by-step explanation:

b) The remaining fence, after the two sides of length x are fenced, is 200-2x. That is the length of the side parallel to the building. The product of the lengths parallel and perpendicular to the building is the area of the playground:

A(x) = x(200 -2x)

a) A(50) = 50(200 -2·50) = 50·100 = 5000 . . . . m²

c) The equation makes no sense if either length (x or 200-2x) is negative, so a reasonable domain is (0, 100). For x=0 or x=100, the playground area is zero, so we're not concerned with those cases, either. Those endpoints could be included in the domain if you like.

The unshaded area inside the figure to the right is 648 in.² Use this fact to write an equation involving x. Then solve the equa

FrozenT [24]

The second order polynomial that involves the variable x (border inside the rectangle) and associated to the unshaded area is x² - 62 · x + 232 = 0.

<h3>How to derive an expression for the area of an unshaded region of a rectangle</h3>

The area of a rectangle (A), in square inches, is equal to the product of its width (w), in inches, and its height (h), in inches. According to the figure, we have two proportional rectangles and we need to derive an expression that describes the value of the unshaded area.

If we know that A = 648 in², w = 22 - x and h = 40 - x, then the expression is derived below:

A = w · h

(22 - x) · (40 - x) = 648

40 · (22 - x) - x · (22 - x) = 648

880 - 40 · x - 22 · x + x² = 648

x² - 62 · x + 232 = 0

The second order polynomial that involves the variable x (border inside the rectangle) and associated to the unshaded area is x² - 62 · x + 232 = 0. $\blacksquare$
