Juan wants to change the shape of his vegetable garden from a square to a rectangle, but keep the same area so he can grow the s

ame amount of vegetables. The rectangular garden will have a length that is 2 times the length of the square garden, and the width of the new garden will be 16 feet shorter than the old garden. The square garden is x feet by x feet. What is the quadratic equation that would model this scenario?

For the square, the area will be 4x4, which will equal 16 sq ft. Since Juan is wanting to turn it to a rectangle, he will have to use the equation 8x2.

Here is the model, but the Areas are not the same.
Old = X*X = X^2 Area
New = 2X*(X-16) = 2X^2-32X
If the Areas are the same,
2X^2 - 32X = X^2
X^2 - 32X = 0
X(X-32) = 0
X = 32
Old Area = 32x32 = 1024 ft^2
New Area = 2(32x32) = 32x32 = 1024 ft^2

How would I go about solving this?
garik1379 [7]
If you draw more of those triangles, there will be 6 that can fit, so find area of 1 triangle and multiply it by 6. Write that number down and then do Pi r squared to find the area of the circle, then do circle area minus triangles area when you get that, divide it by 6. That is the area of the white region so then do Pi R squared again and then subtract the white area from that

A recycling bin is in the shape of a right rectangular prism. The bin is 12 meters long, 512 meters wide, and 612 meters tall.
devlian [24]
To find the volume of the recycling bin, you will use the formula for finding volume of a rectangular prism.

V = lwh
V = 12 x 512 x 612
V = 3760128 cubic meters

The answer is not given, but based in these numbers this is correct.

If it is 12 m x 5 m x 6 than the answer is 360 cubic meters

Find The Area Of The Shape Shown Below
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

<u>32</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

I proceeded to divide the shape up into 2 triangle and 1 square. The added sum of the 2 divided triangles is 16 and the square is 16. Add those to to get <u>32</u>.

The following shape is a trapezoid

area formula:

A=

A=

A= (4)(12+4)

A= (4)(16)

A= (4)(16)

A= (64)

A=32

Also, is that Khan Academy?
