Answer:

14.25 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a square= $l*b= (x-3)(x-3)=x^{2}-3x-3x+9=x^{2}-6x+9$

$x^{2}-6x+9=126.5625$

$x^{2}-6x-117.5625$

Solving the equation using quadratic equation then as attached

x=14.25 units

To prove

x-3=14.25-3= 11.25 units

area=11.25*11.25=126.5625 sq units

Find the equation for a polynomial f(x) that satisfies the following:

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

f(x) = 1/2(4 - x)(x - 1)(x - 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering zero's and a coefficient, the function is:

f(x) = a(x - 4)(x - 1)(x - 2)

Considering y-intercept:

f(0) = a(0 - 4)(0 - 1)(0 - 2)

4 = a(-4)(-1)(-2)

4 = -8a

a = -1/2

So the function is:

f(x) = -1/2(x - 4)(x - 1)(x - 2) = 1/2(4 - x)(x - 1)(x - 2)

$\bf h=20ln(3t+2)+30\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\boxed{a}\\\\
\stackrel{0~years}{t=0}\qquad h=20ln[3(0)+2]+30\implies h=20ln(2)+30
\\\\\\
h\approx 43.86
\\\\\\
\boxed{b}\\\\
\stackrel{1~meter}{h=100}\qquad 100=20ln(3t+2)+30\implies 70=20ln(3t+2)
\\\\\\
\cfrac{70}{20}=ln(3t+2)\implies \stackrel{\textit{log cancellation rule}}{e^{\frac{7}{2}}=e^{ln(3t+2)}}\implies e^{\frac{7}{2}}=3t+2
\\\\\\
e^{\frac{7}{2}}-2=3t\implies \cfrac{e^{\frac{7}{2}}-2}{3}=t\implies 10.371817\approx t$

$\bf \boxed{c}\\\\
\cfrac{dh}{dt}=20\left(\cfrac{1}{3t+2}\cdot 3 \right)+0\implies \cfrac{dh}{dt}=20\left(\cfrac{3}{3t+2} \right)\\\\\\ \cfrac{dh}{dt}=\cfrac{60}{3t+2}
\\\\\\
\left. \cfrac{dh}{dt} \right|_{3}\implies \cfrac{60}{3(3)+2}\implies \cfrac{60}{11}
\\\\\\
\left. \cfrac{dh}{dt} \right|_{10}\implies \cfrac{60}{3(10)+2}\implies \cfrac{15}{8}$
