Answer:
- x = 4
- length = 19 ft
- width = 11 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The area is given by the product of length and width.
A = LW
209 = (4x +3)(4x -5)
209 = 16x^2 -8x -15
224 = 16x^2 -8x
You could rearrange and use the quadratic formula at this point, but we elect to "complete the square".
14 = x^2 -(1/2)x
14 +1/16 = x^2 -1/2x +(1/4)^2 . . . . . add the square of half the x-coefficient
(x -0.25)^2 = 14.0625
x = 0.25 ± 3.75 . . . . . . take the square root; add 0.25
Only positive values of x are useful here, so we have
x = 4
Then the dimensions are ...
length = 4x +3 = 4(4) +3 = 19 . . . feet
width = 4x -5 = 16 -5 = 11 . . . feet
Answer:
100
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Unit rate = 24 oz / 10lb = 2.4 oz / lb
This means that we need 2.4 oz of seasoning for every pound of crawfish
b) For 30 lbs....we need 30 * 2.4 = 72 oz of seasoning
c) With 36 oz of seasoning...we can cook 36 / 2.4 = 15 lbs of crawfish
Answer:
b = y-intercept; The equation is y = mx + b. The x and y variables remain as letters, but m and b are replaced by numbers (ex: y = 2x + 4, slope = 2 and y-intercept = 4). The following video will show a few examples of understanding how to use the slope and intercept from an equation.
Vertex (4, -13) y = x^2 - 8x + 3 x-coordinate of vertex: x = -b/(2a) = 8/2 = 4 y-coordinate of vertex: y(4) = 16 - 32 + 3 = -13 Vertex (4, -13) To find y-intercepts, make x = 0 --> y = 3 To find x-intercepts, solve the quadratic equation y = 0 Use the improved quadratic formula D = d^2 = b^2 - 4ac = 64 - 12 = 52 --> d = +- 2sqrt13 There are 2 x-intercepts (2 real roots): x = -b/(2a) +- d/(2a) = 8/2 +- (2sqrt13)/2 = 4 +- sqrt13 graph{x^2 - 8x + 3 [-40, 40, -20, 20]}
