V=LWH
W=2
120=V
120=L2H
divide by 2
60=LH

SA
2 pairs of same sides
1 bottom

SA=2(LH+WH)+LW
we know that W=2 so
SA=2(LH+2H)+2L
exanded
SA=2LH+4H+2L

we need to solve for 1 variable to eliminate it
60=LH
divide both sides by L
60/L=H
sub 60/L for H

SA=2L(60/L)+4(60/L)+2L
SA=2(60)+(240/L)+2L
SA=120+(240/L)+2L
SA=184
184=120+(240/L)+2L
multiply both sides by L
184L=120L+240+2L²
minus 184L both sides
0=2L²-64L+240
factor
0=2(L²-32L+120)
use quadratic formula
L=16-2√34 or 16+2√34

the dimentions are (aprox)
Legnth=4.3381, Width=2, Height=13.831 or
Legnth=27.6619, Width=2, Height=2.1691

PLEASE HELP!! Write the equation of the graph.
Jet001 [13]
When you first look at thius graph, you should notice two things immedietly.

1. This graph will have a positive slope, because the line is going up.

2. the y-intercept is -2 because that's where it is on the y-axis.

Now, you have been given two points, (2, 1) and (0, -2). You can put these two points into the slope formula, which is: m = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} \frac{(-2) - 1}{0 - 2} = \frac{3}{2} = 3/2.

So, now you have your slope and your y-intercept. Now, just put them into    y = mx + b form!

y = 3/2x - 2 (it is ubtracting two instead of adding two because it is a negative two.)

Hope this helps!!
