Start with
Subtract 
from both sides:
Divide both sides by 
And thus we solved the expression for l:
The first one is correct :-)
Answer:
your answer is incorrect. The correct answer is 
and 
.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a quadratic function is 
and a>0, then minimum value of the function at point 
.
The given function is
Here, a=1, b=b and c=182. So.
Put 
in the given function to find the minimum value of the function.
We know that minimum value is 13. So,
Taking square root on both sides.
The value of b is 26.
So, the given function is
Now, add and subtract square of half of coefficient of x.
On comparing with 
, we get
Therefore, your answer is incorrect.

<span>2. A pool company is trying out several new drains. Drain A empties a pool at a rate of 2 gal/min. Drain B empties a pool at a rate of 5 gal/min. One pool has 108 gal of water in it. Write an equation for each drain that shows the amount of time it takes to empty the pool. Then solve each equation showing your work.</span>
Drain A: rate is 2 gal/min. We do not know which pool has 108 gallons of water in it. If it's Pool A, then the time required to empty Pool A is
108 gallons
------------------- = 54 minutes
2 gallons/min
If it's Pool B, then we can represent the amount of water in Pool B by b. Then the time required to empty Pool B is
b (gallons)
------------------ = (b/5) minutes
5 gallons/min
