Draw a rectangle that has a area of a square Units and a perimeter of 12 units what are the side length of the rectangle

Let s represent the length of one side of this rectangle, and w represent the width of the rectangle (length of one end).  Then 2s + 2w = 12 units, and the area is a = s*w.  Using the previous equation we can eliminate either s or w.  Since we want s, eliminate w:  2w = 12 - 2s, or w = 6 - s.

Then the area of the rect. is a = s(6 - s) = 6s - s^2.

You have not shared the actual area of the rect., but have represented it by "a."

Suppose that the area is given and is 90.  Then 90 square units = 6s - s^2, so that -s^2 + 6s - 90 = 0.  Using the Pyth. Thm., we find s as follows:

       -6 plus or minus sqrt( 6^2 - 4(-1)(-90)
s = ---------------------------------------------------
                            2(-1)

Unfortunately, s would come out as a pair of complex numbers, which is not possible in a situation where you're calculating lengths.

Please recheck this problem.  Was the aera of the rectangle, a, given?

The relationship between the number of hours a plumber works and the total work fee she charges is proportional. Her fee for 5 h
dolphi86 [110]

Answer: As given, relationship between the number of hours a plumber works and the total work fee she charges is proportional.

The meaning of proportional is Ratio of number of hours a plumber works and the total work fee she charges is constant.

Using Unitary method

5 hours of work = $350

1 hours of work = $70

Let number of hours worked = x hours

Amount earned for x hours of work is represented by = $ y

For , x hours of work amount earned = 70 x (x=1,2,3...)

→y= 70 x

→→

find the formula for a rational function that satisfies all of the following. its x-intercept is (-3,0). it has a vertical asymp
Norma-Jean [14]

Let that be

\\ \rm\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{a(f(x))}{g(x)}

Two vertical asymptotes at -1 and 0

\\ \rm\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{a(f(x)}{x(x+1)}

If we simply

\\ \rm\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{a(f(x)}{x^2+1}

  • Denominator has degree 2
  • Numerator should have degree as 2 and coefficient as 3 inorder to get horizontal asymptote y=3 means the quadratic equation should contain 3x²
  • But there should be a x intercept at -3 so one zeros should be -3

Find a equation

  • 3x²+9x

Find zeros

  • 3x²+9x=0
  • 3x(x+3)=0
  • x=0,-3

Horizontal asymptote

  • 3x²/x²
  • 3

So our equation is

\\ \rm\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{3x^2+9x}{x(x+1)}

In quadrilateral $ABCD$, we have $AB=3,$ $BC=6,$ $CD=4,$ and $DA=4$.
vampirchik [111]
The triangle inequality applies.

In order for ACD to be a triangle, the length of AC must lie between CD-DA=0 and CD+DA=8.

In order for ABD to be a triangle, the length of AC must lie between BC-AB=3 and BC+AB=9.

The values common to both these restrictions are numbers between 3 and 8. Assuming we don't want the diagonal to be coincident with any sides, its integer length will be one of ...
