Answer:
A) L = W + 6
B) L * W = 167 OR L = 167 / W
Substituting B) into A)
167 / W = W + 6
Multiplying both sides by "W" we get
167 = W^2 + 6W
W^2 + 6W -167
Solving by the quadratic formula
Width = 10.266
Length = 16.266
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Length = 16 inches and width = 12inches
Step-by-step explanation:
A = 192 in² . The width is 4 + 1/2x. therefore let x = length
Area = LW
192 = x(4 + 1/2 x)
192 = 4x + 1/2x²
384 = 8x + x² Multiply each term by 2 to make a
384 + 16 = x² + 8x + 16 Complete the square
400 = (x + 4)²
± 20 = x + 4
20 = x + 4 or -20 = x + 4
20 - 4 = x or -20 - 4 = x
16 = x or -24 = x reject the negative amount
Length = 16
width = 4 + 1/2(16); 4 + 8 = 12
Remember you can' do anything to boht sides, but when times negative, flip sign
distributive property
a(b+c)=ab+ac
distribute the -4
-8+4x
now we have
2x<8-8+4x
2x<4x
minus 2x both sides
0<2x
therefor
0<x
answer is x>0
