Answer:

Width = 5 cm

Length = 7 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Width = w

Length = 2w - 3

Perimeter = 24 cm

2* (length + width ) = 24

2*(2w-3 +w) = 24

2*(3w -3) = 24

3w - 3 = 24/2

3w - 3 = 12

3w = 12+ 3

3w = 15

w = 15/3

w = 5cm

Length = 2w - 3 = 2*5 - 3 = 10-3 = 7 cm

length = 7 cm

Complete the square to transform the expression x2 + 4x + 2 into the form a(x − h)2 + k.
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = (x^2 + 4x)      + 2

Take 1/2 of the linear term 4/2 = 2 and square that result. 2^2 = 4.

Put it after 4x

y = (x^2 + 4x + 4)   +2  Subtract what you put inside the brackets on the outside.

y = (x^2 + 4x + 4) + 2 - 4      Combine the right.

y = (x^2 + 4x + 4) - 2            Express the brackets as a square.

y = (x + 2)^2 - 2

That's your answer

a = 1

h = 2

k = -2
