Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
23
Answer:
The garden is 9 feet wide and 26 feet long.
Step-by-step explanation:
L = W+17
area = LW = 234
(W+17)W = 234
W²+17W-234 = 0
Quadratic formula
W = [-17 ± √(17² – 4·1(-234))] / [2·1]
= [-17 ± √1225] / 2
= [-17 ± 35] /2
= -26, 9
-26 is an extraneous solution
W = 9
L = W+17 = 26
The garden is 9 feet wide and 26 feet long.
Answer:
a = $17.25
Step-by-step explanation:
let the money spend on the necklace be a
we have
15.75 +1.5*2 +a + 14 = 50
-> a = 50 -15.75 -3-14
-> a = $17.25
Set the function to equal zero:

To find the zeros, or solutions, to this problem, we will use the quadratic formula:

Plug the values into the equation:




Solve for both plus and minus:



The question cannot use a negative value for x, as the diver cannot dive a negative distance from the board.
The answer is
'<span>
x = 5; the diver hits the water 5 feet away horizontally from the board', because x represents the horizontal distance away from the board.</span>
