Let x,y be the dimensions of the rectangle. We know the equations for both area and perimeter:

A=xy=36

P=2(x+y)=36 \iff x+y=18

So, we have  the following system:

\begin{cases}xy=36\\x+y=18\end{cases}

From the second equation, we can deduce

y=18-x

Plug this in the first equation to get

xy=x(18-x)=-x^2+18=36

Refactor as

x^2-18x+36=0

And solve with the usual quadratic formula to get

x=9\pm3\sqrt{5}

Both solutions are feasible, because they're both positive.

If we chose the positive solution, we have

x=9+3\sqrt{5} \implies y=18-x=18-9-3\sqrt{5}=9-3\sqrt{5}

If we choose the negative solution, we have

x=9-3\sqrt{5} \implies y=18-x=18-9+3\sqrt{5}=9+3\sqrt{5}

So, we're just swapping the role of x and y. The two dimensions of the rectangle are 9+3\sqrt{5} and 9-3\sqrt{5}

What is 3x^2-2n-5=0<br> please help me!!!
expeople1 [14]
The answer to your question is: 
It is a quadratic equation in 'x', with 'n' mistakenly typed in the second term..

Although you didn't ask for the solutions to the equation, I'm already here
so I might as well go through it and find them:

<span><u>3x² - 2x - 5 = 0</u></span>

In terms of the generic quadratic formula:
A = 3
B = -2
C = -5

Plug those into the quadratic formula, and you discover that

<u>x = -1</u>
and
<u>x = ⁵/₃</u>

What is the value of x?
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagoras Theorem

x² + 16² = 34²

x² + 256 =  1156

x² = 1156 - 256

x² = 900

x= √3*3*10*10

x= 3*10

x = 30

Solve the equation 3 . 10^4 = 3,600
quester [9]
The solution is false!
3.1 would become a fraction that will be calculated back into a decimal by the 4th power making it 92.3521=3,600.. so the equality is false because the left hand and the right hand side are different.
