Write an equation system based on the problem
# The perimeter is 360 yg
2l + 2w = 360
# The length is 20 yd longer than the width
l = 20 + w

Solve the equation system, substitute 20+w as l to the first equation to find the value of w
2l + 2w = 360
2(20+w) + 2w = 360
40 + 2w + 2w = 360
4w + 40 = 360
4w = 360 - 40
4w = 320
  w = 320/4
  w = 80
The width is 80 yd

Find the length by substituting the value of w
l = 20 + w
l = 20 + 80
l = 100
The length is 100 yd

The dimension:
l = 100 yd
w = 80 yd

If P=360, then 360yd / 4 sides = 90yds each side. Now that it is a rectangle, the Length should be more than the width, so if the length is 20yds more than the width, do 90 - 20 two times,  Width= [ (90yds - 20yds)*2 ] 

To sum things up, Length = 110; Width = 70. | 110*2 = 220, 70 * 2 = 140, 220+140 = 360.

Find an expression for a cubic function f if f(4) = 96 and f(-4) = f(0) = f(5) = 0. Part 1 of 4 A cubic function generally has t
Bezzdna [24]

Given a polynomial p(x) and a point x_0, we have that

p(x_0) = 0 \iff (x-x_0) \text{\ divides\ } p(x)

We know that our cubic function is zero at -4, 0 and 5, which means that our polynomial is a multiple of

(x+4)(x)(x-5) = x(x+4)(x-5)

Since this is already a cubic polynomial (it's the product of 3 polynomials with degree one), we can only adjust a multiplicative factor: our function must be

f(x) = ax(x+4)(x-5),\quad a \in \mathbb{R}

To fix the correct value for a, we impose f(4)=96:

f(4) = 4a(4+4)(4-5) = -32a = 96

And so we must impose

-32a=96 \iff a = -\dfrac{96}{32} = -3

So, the function we're looking for is

f(x) = -3x(x+4)(x-5)=-3x^3+3x^2+60x

Your friend has $90 when he goes to the fair. He spends $5 to enter the fair and $15 on food. Rides at the fair cost $1.50 per r
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer: Option 'B' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that ,

Total money he takes while going to the fair = $90

Money he spends to enter the fair = $5

Money he spends on food =$15

Total he spent now is given by

\$5+\$15=\$20

Now, he spend on rides at the fair i.e. 1.50 per ride .

Let the number of rides be x

So, cost incurred on rides = 1.5x

So, the spending money can be expressed as

20+1.50x

Now, remaining money left to him after spending on x rides too is

90-(1.50x+20)\\\\=90-1.50x-20\\\\=70-1.5x

Let f(x) denotes the function used to determine the money he has left over after rides .

So it becomes

f(x)=70-1.50x\\\\f(x)=-1.50x+70
