Answer:

A(square) = x*x= x^2

A(rectangle) = (a-2) (a+2) = a^2 +2a- 2a-4 = a^2 -4

A(rectangle) = A(square) -4

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we assume that the square have sides of length x.

So then the area for this square is given by A(square) = x*x= x^2

We have a rectangle and on this case we have this information :" the rectangle has side lengths 2 less and 2 more than  a square"

So then the sides of the rectangle needs to have lengths a-2 and a+2, and if we find the area for the rectangle we got:

A(rectangle) = (a-2) (a+2) = a^2 +2a- 2a-4 = a^2 -4

And as we can see th area for the rectangl is 4 units less than the area for the rectangle:

A(rectangle) = A(square) -4

Inga [223]
Find the intersection point between the 2 restraint equations:
30 - 2x = 12 - \frac{1}{2} x  \\ \frac{3}{2} x = 18  \\  x = 12

Substitute back in to find y-value:
y = 30 - 2(12) = 6

P is maximized at point (12,6)
P = 9(12)+9(6) = 162

Find cos(2theta) if cos(theta)= 3/4
yuradex [85]
Sin theta = 8/17 and theta is in the second quadrant. Find sin(2theta),cos(2theta),tan(2theta) exactly sin(2theta) cos(2theta) tan(2theta) sin(2theta) would it be 2 x (8/17) cos(2theta) would be 2 x (15/17) tan(2theta) would be 2 x (8/17 divided by 15/17) is this correct?
