Let the width path be x.
Length of the outer rectangle = 26 + 2x.
Width of the outer rectangle = 8 +2x.
Combined Area = (2x + 26)*(2x + 8) = 1008
2x*(2x + 8) + 26*(2x + 8 ) = 1008
4x² + 16x + 52x + 208 = 1008
4x² + 68x + 208 - 1008 = 0
4x² + 68x - 800 = 0. Divide through by 4.
x² + 17x - 200 = 0 . This is a quadratic equation.
Multiply first and last coefficients: 1*-200 = -200
We look for two numbers that multiply to give -200, and add to give +17
Those two numbers are 25 and -8.
Check: 25*-8 = -200 25 + -8 = 17
We replace the middle term of +17x in the quadratic expression with 25x -8x
x² +17x - 200 = 0
x² + 25x - 8x - 200 = 0
x(x + 25) - 8(x + 25) = 0
(x+25)(x -8) = 0
x + 25 = 0 or x - 8 = 0
x = 0 -25 x = 0 + 8
x = -25 x = 8
The width of the path can not be negative.
The only valid solution is x = 8.
The width of the path is 8 meters.
Answer:
1 half 1 half
Step-by-step explanation:
simple maths
Step-by-step explanation:
As
- The graph of the function passes through the point (2,1), and
- y increases by 4 when x increases by 1.
so
x y
2 1
3 5
4 9
5 13
6 17
and so on
From the table:
As the slope-intercept form of the line is
putting m=4 and any point, let say (2, 1) to find y-intercept 'b'.
So putting and in the slope-intercept form of the line
Therefore, the equation for the linear function will be:
Answer:
An obtuse triangle has 1 obtuse angle and 2 acute angles.
