Answer:

45 yards and 176 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a rectangular playing field = 2(Length + width)

P = 2(L+W)..................... Equation 1

From the question,

Let the width of the rectangular playing field = x yards,

The the Length = 4x-4 yards.

Given: P = 442 yards.

Substitute these values into equation 1

442 = 2(4x-4+x)

442/2 = 5x-4

221 = 5x-4

5x = 221+4

5x = 225

x = 225/5

x = 45 yards.

Width = 45 yards.

Length = (45×4)-4 yards = 176 yards

Hence the dimensions of the playing field are, 45 yards and 176 yards

Using completing the square solve for x<br> X^2-10x-9=0
Lady bird [3.3K]
X^2 - 10x - 9 = 0
first we will move the constant term to the other side
x^2 - 10x = 9
then, to both sides we will add the number that makes the polynomial on the left a perfect square trinomial. Take half of the coefficient of x, then square it. half of the coefficient of x (-10) is -5, and -5 squared is 25. so:
x^2 - 10x + 25 = 34
factor the perfect square trinomial
(x - 5)^2 = 34
x - 5 = plus or minus sqrt(34)
x = 5 plus or minus sqrt(34)

Identify an equation in point-slope form for the line parallel to y = x-7 that
Olin [163]

Answer:

B. y + 2 = ½(x + 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Insert the coordinates into the formula with their CORRECT signs. Remember, in the Point-Slope Formula [y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)], all the negative symbols give the OPPOSITE terms of what they really are, which is the reason why you see two "+" in the equation. The ordered pair of [-3, -2] has two negative numbers, therefore you need to make them both positive in the equation [see above answer].

I am joyous to assist you anytime.

Write an equation for the line shown pictured in the graph.
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

<u>4y =  x + 13</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The general equation of the line y = mx + c

where m is the slope and c is constant represent y-intercept

The line shown in the graph pass through the points (3,4) , (-1,3)

The slope of the line = (y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁) = (3-4)/(-1-3) = -1/-4 = 1/4

∴ y = (1/4) x + c

Substitute with the point (3,4) to find c

∴ 4 = (1/4) 3 + c

∴ c = 4 - 3/4 = 13/4

∴ y = (1/4) x + 13/4 ⇒ multiply both sides by 4

∴ 4y =  x + 13

So, The equation of the line in the graph: 4y =  x + 13

The equation can be written as <u>y = (1/4) x + 13/4  OR  4y - x = 13</u>
