The largest area that can be enclosed will be that of a square (140 ft)/4 = 35 ft on a side. Such a square has an area of (35 ft)² = 1225 ft², not enough for the garden to be 1300 ft². This tells us the solution to the equation you're being asked to write is non-real.
_____
Putting the given numbers in the area equation, you have
... 1300 = 70w -w²
Multiplying by -1 and completing the square, we have
... w² -70w +35² = -1300 +35²
... (w -35)² = 1225 -1300 = -75
Taking the square root shows us the solution is non-real.
... w - 35 = ±√(-75) = ±5i√3
... w = 35 ± 5i√3 . . . . . . . . . after adding 35. These are complex solutions.
It doesn't. 16/6 = 2 4/6 or 2 2/3
Answer:
2, quadratic, 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Degree is the highest power which is 2 then the lead coefficient is the constant multiplying the highest power so for x^2 it is 1 and the type of equation is what is it, linear, quadratic, cubic, etc. For this it is quadratic because x^2 means its a parabola.
Answer:
(c) 5y -17x +99 = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
The median of a triangle is the line through a vertex and the midpoint of the opposite side. The median of ΔXYZ from vertex Y will be the line through point Y and the midpoint of XZ.
<h3>Midpoint</h3>
The midpoint of XZ is the average of the coordinates of X and Z.
M = (X +Z)/2
M = ((1, -2) +(8, -7))/2 = (9, -9)/2 = (4.5, -4.5)
<h3>Line through two points</h3>
The slope of the median can be found using the slope formula:
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
The slope of line YM is ...
m = (-4.5 -4)/(4.5 -7) = -8.5/-2.5 = 17/5
The point-slope form of the equation of a line is ...
y -k = m(x -h) . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)
The line with slope 17/5 through point Y(7, 4) is ...
y -4 = 17/5(x -7)
Subtracting the right side, and multiplying by 5 gives ...
5(y -4) -17(x -7) = 0
5y -17x +99 = 0 . . . . equation of the median through Y
