Answer: length = 8cm
Width = 4cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the width of the rectangle be represented by x.
Since the length of a rectangle is twice as long as the width of the rectangle, then the length will be: = 2 × x = 2x
Note that, Area of a rectangle = Length × Width
Therefore,
2x × x = 32
2x² = 32
Divide both side by 2
2x²/2 = 32/2
x² = 16
x = ✓16
x = 4
Therefore, width = 4cm
Since length = 2x
Length = 2 × 4cm = 8cm
Check: length × width = Area
8cm × 4cm = 32cm²
Pi: Irrational
√(2/3): Irrational

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The roots of the quadratic function (x-intercepts) are
x=-1 and x=5/3
so
we can write the equation of the parabola as

where
a is a coefficient
Remember that
The parabola pass through the point (5,40)
substitute the value of x and the value of y of the ordered pair in the quadratic equation and solve for a
x=5, y=40



substitute

apply distributive property

Answer:
The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the original length of the piece of metal
y ----> the original width of the piece of metal
we know that
When squares with sides 5 in long are cut from the four corners and the flaps are folded upward to form an open box
The dimensions of the box are

The volume of the box is equal to


so

simplify
-----> equation A
Remember that
The piece of metal is 25 in longer than it is wide
so
----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A

solve for y

Solve the quadratic equation by graphing
using a graphing tool
The solution is y=16
see the attached figure
Find the value of x

therefore
The original length was 41 inches and the original width was 16 inches
