Answer:

Length =  16 feet , width = 4 feet .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : The area of a rectangular wall of a barn is 64 square feet. Its length is 8 feet longer than twice its width.

To find : Find the length and width of the wall of the barn.

Solution : We have given

Area of rectangle = 64 square feet.

According to question :

Let width = W.

Length is 8 feet longer than twicw its width .

Length = 2W + 8

L = 2W + 8.

Area of rectangle = length  * width.

Plug the values.

64 = (2W +8 )W .

64 = 2W² + 8W.

On subtracting both sides by 64.

2W² + 8W- 64 = 0

On taking 2 common from all.

W² + 4 W- 32 = 0

On factoring

W² + 8W -4W - 32 = 0

W (W +8) -4 ( W + 8) = 0

On grouping

(W+8)( W -4) = 0

W = -8 feet, W = 4 feet. ( ignore negative value)

Width = 4 feet.

Length = 2 (4)+ 8.

Length = 16 feet.

Therefore, Length =  16 feet , width = 4 feet .

L×w=64 ft^2...(1)
2w+8= l...(2)

l=64-w...(1a)

2w+8= 64-w
2w+w+8=64
3w=64-8
3w÷3= 56÷3
w=18.6'

l×w= 64
l×18.6= 64
l= 64÷18.6
l= 3.44 to the nearest hundredths.

A rectangular pan has a length that is the width. The total area of the pan is 432 in.2. What is the width of the cake pan? A =
spayn [35]

Answer:

Let width = w

length = 4w/3

Area = 432 = length*width = w*4w/3

4w^2/3 = 432

w^2 = 432*3/4 = 324

w = 18

so the width of the cake pan is 18 inches.

Find the vertex of the graph of the function.
lapo4ka [179]

Answer: The correct options are  (1) (5,10), (2) (3,-3), (3) x = -1, (4) y=(x+2)^2+3, (5) 21s and (6) 0, -1, and 5.

Explanation:

Te standard form of the parabola is,

f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k        .....(1)

Where,  (h,k) is the vertex of the parabola.

(1)

The given equation is,

f(x)=(x-5)^2+10

Comparing this equation with equation (1),we get,

h=5 and k=10

Therefore, the vertex of the graph is (5,10) and the fourth option is correct.

(2)

The given equation is,

f(x)=3x^2-18x+24

f(x)=3(x^2-6x)+24

To make perfect square add (\frac{b}{2a})^2, i.e., 9. Since there is factor 3 outside the parentheses, so subtract three times of 9.

f(x)=3(x^2-6x+9)+24-3\times 9

f(x)=3(x-3)^2-3

Comparing this equation with equation (1),we get,

h=3 and k=-3

Therefore, the vertex of the graph is (3,-3) and the fourth option is correct.

(3)

The given equation is

f(x)=4x^2+8x+7

f(x)=4(x^2+2x)+7

To make perfect square add (\frac{b}{2a})^2, i.e., 1. Since there is factor 4 outside the parentheses, so subtract three times of 1.

f(x)=4(x^2+2x+1)+7-4

f(x)=4(x+1)^2+3

Comparing this equation with equation (1),we get,

h=-1 and k=3

The vertex of the equation is (-1,3) so the axis is x=-1 and the correct option is 2.

(4)

The given equation is,

y=x^2+4x+7

To make perfect square add (\frac{b}{2a})^2, i.e., 2^2.

f(x)=x^2+4x+4+7-4

f(x)=x^2+4x+4+7-4

f(x)=(x+2)^2+3

Therefore, the correct option is  4.

(5)

The given equation is,

h=-16t^2+672t

It can be written as,

h=-16(t^2-42t)

It is a downward parabola. so the maximum height of the function is on its vertex.

The x coordinate of the vertex is,

x=\frac{b}{2a}

x=\frac{42}{2}

x=21

Therefore,  after 21 seconds the projectile reach its maximum height and the correct option is first.

(6)

The given equation is,

f(x)=3x^3-12x^2-15x

f(x)=3x(x^2-4x-5)

Use factoring method to find the factors of the equation.

f(x)=3x(x^2-5x+x-5)

f(x)=3x(x(x-5)+1(x-5))

f(x)=3x(x-5)(x+1)

Equate each factor equal to 0.

x=0,-1,5

Therefore, the zeros of the given equation is 0, -1, 5 and the correct option is 2.
