If the width = x m then the length = 2x - 4 m
Area = x(2x - 4) = 70
2x^2 - 4x - 70 = 0
2x^2 - 14x + 10x - 70 = 0
2x(x - 7) + 10(x - 7) = 0
(2x + 10)(x - 7) = 0
x = 7 or -5 ( ignore negative)
width = 7 m and length = 10 m answer
My answer is: P/2a = 2b
if that's wrong then im sorry I got it by dividing 2a on each side so 2b would be alone
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
x^2 - 2 x - 15
Discussion:
(
x - (-3)) * ( x- 5) =
(x +3) (x-5) =
x^2 - 2 x - 15
It is a concave upward curve (looks like a "u") as the x^2 term causes the function to grow larger as x approaches +\- infinity.
Thank you,
MrB
I really dont understand what your asking, but probably 75%
