Answer:

w^2-12.5w+25=0

Step-by-step explanation:

P=2L+2W

25=2L+2W

12.5=L+W

L=12.5-12

A=LW

25=(12.5-W)W

25=12.5W-W^2

-W^2+12.5W-25=0

W^2-12.5w+25=0

<h3>Answer:   -2w^2 + 25w = 25    or    -2w^2 + 25w - 25 = 0</h3>

================================================================

Explanation:

Refer to the diagram below. The width is w. We have two opposite and parallel sides equal to this. The other two parallel congruent sides are L = 25-2w meters long. We start with the total amount of fencing, and then subtract off the two width values, so 25-w-w = 25-2w.

The area of the rectangle is

Area = length*width

Area = L*W

Area = (25-2w)*w

Area = 25w - 2w^2

Area = -2w^2 + 25w

Set this equal to the desired area (25 square meters) to get

-2w^2 + 25w = 25

and we can subtract 25 from both sides to get everything on one side

-2w^2 + 25w - 25 = 0

side note: The two approximate solutions of this equation are w = 1.0961 and w = 11.4039 (use the quadratic formula or a graphing calculator to find this)

Answer:

A.

5 ^ (5/6)

Step-by-step explanation:

5 ^ (1/2)  * 5 ^ (1/3)

We know that a^b * a^ c = a ^ (b+c)

5 ^ (1/2 + 1/3)

5^ (3/6+2/6)

5^ (5/6)
