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)

goldenfox [79]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, the complex conjugate of a complex number is the number with an equal real part and an imaginary part equal in magnitude but opposite in sign. For example, the complex conjugate of 3 + 4i is 3 − 4i. In polar form, the conjugate of is.

Data:
r (radius) = 3.5 in
h (height) = 8 in
Adopt: \pi \approx3.14
V (volume) = ?
Ink cost per cubic inch = $0.05/in³
Total cost: ?

<span>Calculate the volume of the paint bucket (its formed being cylindrical), we have:
</span>V =  \pi *r^2*h 
V = 3.14 *3.5^2*8 
V = 3.14*12.25*8
\boxed{V = 307.72\:in^3}

<span>What was the total cost of the paint?

</span>price($)___measure(in³)
0.05 ---------- 1
y -------------- 307.72

It is made the rule of three: (<span>directly proportional)
</span>
\frac{0.05}{y} = \frac{1}{307.72}
multiply cross
1*y = 0.05*307.72
y = 15.386\:\to\:\boxed{\boxed{y\approx\$15}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark
