<h3><u>The length is equal to 13.</u></h3><h3><u>The width is equal to 8.</u></h3>

l = 2w - 3

2l + 2w = 42

Because we have a value for l, we can plug it into the second equation to solve for w.

2(2w - 3) + 2w = 42

Distributive property.

4w - 6 + 2w = 42

Combine like terms.

6w - 6 = 42

Add 6 to both sides.

6w = 48

Divide both sides by 6.

w = 8

Now that we have a value for w, we can solve for the exact value of l.

l = 2(8) - 3

l = 16 - 3

l = 13

Determine the equation of the following polyromial that passes through point (0,6).
Ostrovityanka [42]

Answer:

Cubic polynomial has zeros at x=−1x=−1 and 22, is tangent to x−x−axis at x=−1x=−1, and passes through the point (0,−6)(0,−6).

So cubic polynomial has double zero at x=−1x=−1, and single zero at x=2x=2

f(x)=a(x+1)2(x−2)f(x)=a(x+1)2(x−2)

f(0)=−6f(0)=−6

a(1)(−2)=−6a(1)(−2)=−6

a=3a=3

f(x)=3(x+1)2(x−2)f(x)=3(x+1)2(x−2)

f(x)=3x3−9x−6
