Knowing that a square gives the optimum area; 

120=s²
√120=s 
√2×2×2×5×3=s
2√2×3×5=s
2√30=s 

Therefore, the length should be ≈10.95" 

Hope I helped :)

Write the quadratic equation whose roots are 1 and -5, and whose leading coefficient is 3.
Anna35 [415]

Step-by-step explanation:

they're is a neat little trick.

but first of all, "roots" means the 0 solutions of the equation. like

ax² + bx + c = 0

there are 2 solutions for x to make the whole expression equal 0.

these are the "roots".

now to the little trick :

when is a multiplication resulting in 0 ?

when at least one of the factors is 0.

and any quadratic expression can be written as multiplication of 2 factors. like

c(x - a)(x - b) = cx² - cax - cbx + cab

what are the "roots" or 0 points ?

either

c = 0

x - a = 0 | x = a

x - b = 0 | x = b

the leading coefficient = 3.

that means nothing else than c = 3.

root = 1 means (x - 1) is one factor.

root = -5 means (x + 5) is the other factor.

so, we have

3(x - 1)(x + 5) = 3x² + 12x - 15

and the equation is

3x² + 12x - 15 = 0

or

3x² + 12x = 15

Y=−2x+4y, equals, minus, 2, x, plus, 4
vlabodo [156]

The missing value of the solution to the equation y = −2x + 4, is: 3.

<h3>What is the Solution to an Equation?</h3>

The solution to a given equation, is the x and y values of an ordered pair that would make the equation true, if we substitute their values into the equation.

Given the equation, y = -2x + 4, and we have (x, -2) as the solution where the value of x is the missing value in the solution, to find the value of x, substitute y = -2 into the equation and solve for x:

-2 = -2x + 4

Subtract 4 from both sides

-2 - 4 = -2x + 4 - 4 (subtraction property of equality)

-6 = -2x

Divide both sides by -2

-6/-2 = -2x/-2

3 = x

x = 3

Therefore, the missing value is: 3.

What fraction is 1 yard 2 feet and 6 inches
MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

Make sure you convert these numbers into one unit. Convert everything to yard. Just convert the feet and inches in yard since it's the biggest unit, and then add them together. You should get a fraction not a whole number.
