The area of a rectangular computer screen is 4x^2+20x+16. The width of the screen is 2x+8. What is the length of the screen?

1 answer:

7 0

So the area of a rectangle is Length x Width.
A = (L)(W)
Substitute the information given:
4x^2 + 20x + 16 = (L)(2x+8)
Isolate L by dividing 2x+8:
(4x^2 + 20x +16)/ (2x + 8) = L
If you divide:
L = 2x + 2.

Write the equation of the line that passes through (–2, -1) and is perpendicular to 2y=3x-5

DENIUS [597]

So, any line perpendicular to it has slope -2/3
Thus, using the point-slope form of the line, our equation is

y+1 = -2/3 (x+2)
