The perimeter of a parallelogram is 56 meters the width of the parallelogram is 8 meters less than its length find the length of

the width of the parallelogram
Mathematics
1 answer:
Dimas [21]3 years ago

Answer:

length = 18 mt

Width = 10 mt

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the field be x

width of the field be y

Hence

P=2(x+y)

P=56 (given)

56=2(x+y)

Dividing both sides by 2 we get

x+y=28   ---(A)

Also given that width of the parallelogram is 8 meters less than its length

Hence

y=x-8

or x-y=8   ---(B)

Adding A and B

2x=36

x=18

y=x-8

y=18-8=10

Hence length = 18 mt

Width = 10 mt

Complete the square on the following quadratic x2+10x+9=0
kakasveta [241]
Given a quadratic equation x^{2} +ax+c=0

1. the first thing we do when we want to compete the square, is write the coefficient of x as 2 times a number.

In our case the coefficient of x is 10, so we write 10 as 2*5

2. then we write + 5^{2} and - 5^{2} to the expression:

x^{2} +2*5*x+ 5^{2} -5^{2}+9=0

(x^{2} +2*5*x+ 5^{2}) -25+9=0

(x+5)^{2}-16=0



Answer: (x+5)^{2}-16=0

What is the Slope of a line That contains (2,5) and (3, 1) Sketch the graph. Need help with this question.​
Svetach [21]

Answer:

-4/1

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, first plot the two points we are given on the provided coordinate plain. Then using rise/run (slope) find the distance between the two points going up and over or rising and running. So we go up 4 and over 1, this means the slope is 4/1. Since the line we just graphed is going top left towards bottom right, it is negative.

Write an expression in factored form that is equivalent to the given expression. 1/2x + 4 . can u also tell how you solved it ?
Rufina [12.5K]
2 ways: Easy and hard
Hard=A
Easy=B
A: 1/2x+4 work from there so we do fun stuff with it make something that can be simplified so 1/2x+4 times (2/2)=x+8 now square the whole thing and put the result in a square root thingie (x+8)^2=x^2+16x+64 \sqrt{x^2+16x+64} multiply the whole thing by 4/4 and put \sqrt{16} [\tex] on top so then &#10;[tex] \sqrt{x^2+16x+64} times \frac{ \sqrt{16} }{4}=\frac{\sqrt{(16)(x^2+16x+64)}}{4}=\frac{ \sqrt{16x^2+256x+1024} }{4} to solve it, factor out the 16 in the square root and then square root 16 to get 4 then it will be (4 times square root of equation)/4=square root of equatio factor square root of equation and square root it and get x+8 divide by 2 to get 1/2x+4


B: 1/2x+4
put stuff that cancels out
1/2x+3x-3x+4+56-56
move them around
3 and 1/2x-3x+60-56
or
2x-3x+1 and 1/2x+30-20+30-36
then just add like terms to solve
