Answer:
Length: 5 ft; width: 4 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
A = LW formula for area of rectangle
(2x + 1)(2x) = 20 substitute length, width, and area into formula
4x² + 2x - 20 = 0 use the distributive property to multiply out left side
2x² + x - 10 = 0 divide both sides of equation by 2
(2x + 5)(x - 2) = 0 factor out trinomial
2x + 5 = 0 or x - 2 = 0 use zero product rule to solve for x
2x = -5 or x = 2 subtract 5 from both sides; add 2 to both sides
x = -5/2 or x = 2
We discard x = -5/2 since it would give negative length and width, and the length and width cannot be negative.
Length: 2x + 1 = 2(2) + 1 = 5
Width: 2x = 2(2) = 4
Length: 5 ft; width: 4 ft.
Answer:
5 times as many

Step-by-step explanation:
I'd need more information about how many students there are at one of the schools. For example, if there are 200 students at Park Elementary, then there are 1000 at Lane High School since 200 x 5 = 1000. 1000 - 200 is 800, so there would be 800 more students at Lane High.
Answer:
D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Remember that the limit definition of a derivative at a point is:
![\displaystyle{\frac{d}{dx}[f(a)]= \lim_{x \to a}\frac{f(x)-f(a)}{x-a}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdisplaystyle%7B%5Cfrac%7Bd%7D%7Bdx%7D%5Bf%28a%29%5D%3D%20%5Clim_%7Bx%20%5Cto%20a%7D%5Cfrac%7Bf%28x%29-f%28a%29%7D%7Bx-a%7D%7D)
Hence, if we let f(x) be ln(x+1) and a be 1, this will yield:
![\displaystyle{\frac{d}{dx}[f(1)]= \lim_{x \to 1}\frac{\ln(x+1)-\ln(2)}{x-1}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdisplaystyle%7B%5Cfrac%7Bd%7D%7Bdx%7D%5Bf%281%29%5D%3D%20%5Clim_%7Bx%20%5Cto%201%7D%5Cfrac%7B%5Cln%28x%2B1%29-%5Cln%282%29%7D%7Bx-1%7D%7D)
Hence, the limit is equivalent to the derivative of f(x) at x=1, or f’(1).
The answer will thus be D.
