Answer:
The length of the rectangle 'l' = 20
The width of the rectangle 'w' = 14
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Explanation</u>:-
Let 'x' be the width
Given data the length of a rectangular patio is 8 feet less than twice its width
2x-8 = length
The area of rectangle = length X width
Given area of rectangle = 280 square feet
x(2x-8) = 280
2(x)(x-4) =280
x(x-4) =140
x^2 -4x -140=0
x^2-14x+10x-140=0
x(x-14)+10(x-14)=0
(x+10)(x-14) =0
x = -10 and x = 14
we can choose only x =14
The width of the rectangle 14
The length of the rectangle 2x-8 = 2(14)-8 = 28 -8 =20
The length of the rectangle 'l' = 20
The width of the rectangle 'w' = 14

Answer:
The quadratic equation is x^2-2x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to know the equation that has the solution below;
x = 1 ± √5
This means x = 1 + √5 or 1 - √5
The equation would thus be;
(x-1-√5)(x-1+ √5)
= x(x-1+ √5)-1(x-1+ √5)-√5(x-1+ √5)
Opening the brackets we have ;
x^2-x+ √5x-x + 1 -√5-√5x+ √5-5
collecting like terms we have;
x^2-2x+1-5
= x^2-2x-4
4% of $200 is $8. So I don’t think you finish the question, so I assume the interest rate is increasing by months. If that’s true then the $8 is added each month.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y + 6 = -(x - 0)
y + 6 = -x + 0
y = -x - 6
