Answer:
- sides: 12 feet
- front: 28 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of one side of the yard. Then the width of the yard is 2x+4, and the perimeter is ...
P = 2(L +W) . . . . . . . . . . formula for perimeter of a rectangle
80 = 2(x + (2x+4)) . . . . . with values from the problem filled in
40 = 3x +4 . . . . . . . . divide by 2, collect terms
36 = 3x . . . . . . . . . subtract 4
12 = x . . . . . . . . . divide by 3. This is the length of the side fence.
2x +4 = 2(12) +4 = 28
The fence is 12 feet on the sides and 28 feet on the front. (Its total length is 52 feet.)
Answer:
Quadratic because the y values go up and then down. None of the other options can do that.
Answer:
On the surface, it seems easy. Can you think of the integers for x, y, and z so that x³+y³+z³=8? Sure. One answer is x = 1, y = -1, and z = 2. But what about the integers for x, y, and z so that x³+y³+z³=42?
That turned out to be much harder—as in, no one was able to solve for those integers for 65 years until a supercomputer finally came up with the solution to 42. (For the record: x = -80538738812075974, y = 80435758145817515, and z = 12602123297335631. Obviously.)
Step-by-step explanation:
You would divide 10 into 477 to get 47.7, but you can't put 47.7 because you can't have a decimal. The answer is 47
