200 people. If 40 people represent 20%, then you can multiply 40 by 5 to get 100% of the surveyed people, which is 200

The width and the length of a rectangle are consecutive even integers. If the width is decreased by 3 inches, then the area of t
Yuliya22 [10]

The original are would be 48.

Since we know that the length and width are two consecutive even integers, we can model them as follows:

Width = x

Length = x + 2

This works because no matter what even number is put in for x, the length will also be even.

Now we know if we subtract 3 from the width, we have a new rectangle that gives us an area of 24 inches. Therefore, our new triangle has the following:

Width: x - 3

Length: x + 2

Area: 24

And we can plug this into the equation.

Length* Width = Area

(x + 2)(x - 3) = 24

x^2 - x - 6 = 24

x^2 - x - 30 = 0

This is not a quadratic that we can factor to show the following:

(x - 6)(x + 5) = 0

This gives us the answers of x = 6 and x = -5. Since a side can't be negative, we throw out the x = -5 and the answer is x = 6.

So if we go back to the original rectangle, we know:

Width = x = 6

Length = x + 2 = 8

Area = 6*8 = 48

Can someone please help mee (20 points and i will give brainliest!!!)

Answer:

a. y-intercept:(0,  -6), x-intercepts: (3, 0) and (-2, 0). vertex: (0.5, -6.25)

b. y-intercept: (0, 6), x-intercepts(3, 0) and (-2, 0). vertex: (0.5, 6.25)

Step-by-step explanation:

a:

 So finding the y-intercept is really easy and is simply when x=0. If you plug in 0 as x it makes y=(0)^2-0-6 which simplifies to -6, which is the y-intercept. As for the x-intercepts you can calculate that by using the quadratic equation x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\. In this case a=1, b=-1, c=-6. So plugging those values in you get x=\frac{-(-1)\pm\sqrt{(-1)^2-4(1)(-6)}}{2(1)}, which simplifies to x=\frac{1\pm5}{2}. This gives you the x-intercepts 6/2 and -4/2 which are 3 and -2. The vertex can be calculated by manipulating the equation so it's in the form of y=(x-h)^2+k where (h, k) is the vertex of the parabola. This is done by moving c to the other side and then completing the square and the isolating y. So the first step will be

Move c to the other side

y+6=x^2-x

Complete the square by adding (b/2)^2

y+6+0.25 = x^2-x+0.25

Rewrite as square binomial

y+6.25 = (x-0.5)^2

Isolate y

y=(x-0.50)^2-6.25

(h, k) = 0.50, -6.25 which is the vertex

b: To identify the y-intercept you plug in 0 as x which will only leave c which in this case is 6 which is the y-intercept. (0, 6). To identify the x-intercepts you can simplify plug in the values a, b, c into the quadratic equation which was stated in the previous answer. In this case a, b, c = -1, 1, 6. Plugging these values in gives the equation y=\frac{-(1)\pm\sqrt{1^2-4(-1)(6)}}{2(-1)}. which simplifies to x=\frac{-1\pm5}{-2} which gives the values -2 and 3. To find the vertex it's the same process as before

Factor out -1

y=-(x^2-x-6)

Add 6 to both sides (on the left side add -6 since -1 was factored out).

y-6=-(x^2-x)

Complete the square by adding (b/2)^2 to both sides (add -(b/2)^2 to left side since -1 was factored out)

y-6-0.25 = -(x^2-x+0.25)

Rewrite as square binomial

y-6.25=-(x-0.5)^2

Add 6.25 to both sides

y=(x-0.50)^2+6.25

(h, k) = (0.50, 6.25)

When you graph the parabolas you'll notice there just flipped relative to the x-axis. This can be deduced by simply looking at the two equations, since the two equations have the same absolute value coefficients, the signs are just different, and more specifically they're all opposite. If you took the first equation and multiplied the entire right side by -1 you would get the same equation. And since that equation really represents the value of y (since it's equal to y) you're reflecting it across the x-axis.
