Closed dot on 53, arrow going to the right
Answer:
36 ft by 16 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem, you need to find dimensions of a rectangle such that the perimeter is 104 ft and the area is 576 ft. The perimeter is twice the sum of length and width, so the sum of length and width is 52 ft.
The area is the product of length and width, so if w represents the width, we have ...
w(52 -w) = 576
w² -52w = -576 . . . . . eliminate parentheses, multiply by -1
w² -52w +26² = 26² -576 . . . . . . complete the square
(w -26)² = 676 -576 = 100
w = 26 ±√100 = {16, 36}
If the width is the short dimension, it is 16 feet. Then the length is 36 feet.
Answer:
(the last option)
Step-by-step explanation: When you plug in values from the given solution set, the number is positive because of the absolute value symbol. This causes the range of possible values to be from 0 to 5, which are all less than or equal to 5.
The answer is -28 if there is a negative then the answer is a negative
