A rectangle has a length of x and a width that is 8 units shorter than twice the length.

Mathematics
1 answer:
erma4kov [3.2K]3 years ago
6 0

Step-by-step explanation:

length = x

width = 2x-8

b.) to get the area you need to multiply the length and the width.

l×w= area

x(2x-8)

2x^2-8x

c.) 2x^2-8x = 10

subtract 10 both sides

2x^2-8x-10 = 0

2(x^2-4x-5) = 0

2(x-5)(x+1) = 0

x = 5

the area would be 10.

Let’s look at another one of Homer’s rocket launches. It was launched from ground level with an initial velocity of 208 feet per
kozerog [31]

Answer:

Smax = 676 ft

the maximum altitude (height) the rocket will attain during its flight is 676 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

The height function S(t) of the rocket as;

S(t) = -16t2 + 208t

The maximum altitude Smax, will occur at dS/dt = 0

differentiating S(t);

dS/dt = -32t + 208 = 0

-32t +208 = 0

32t = 208

t = 208/32

t = 6.5 seconds.

The maximum altitude Smax is;

Substituting t = 6.5 s

Smax = -16(6.5)^2 + 208(6.5)

Smax = 676 ft

the maximum altitude (height) the rocket will attain during its flight is 676 ft

What is the equation (simplified) the inverse of y=2x^2?
Yuki888 [10]
2x^2=y\ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\\\x^2=\dfrac{y}{2}\\\\\boxed{x=\sqrt{\frac{y}{2}}}\\\\x=\dfrac{\sqrt{y}}{\sqrt2}=\dfrac{\sqrt{y}\cdot\sqrt2}{\sqrt2\cdot\sqrt2}\to\boxed{x=\dfrac{\sqrt{2y}}{2}}\\\\\\\boxed{f(x)=2x^2\to f^{-1}(x)=\dfrac{\sqrt{2y}}{2}}
