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)

The height of the trunk is 26 inches the length of the trunk is 50 inches. The tv is 54 inches wide. And 96 inches in height Use
Sav [38]

Answer:

The length of the diagonal of the trunk is 56.356011 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

height of the trunk= 26 inches

length of the trunk= 50 inches

According to the Pythagorean theorem, to calculate the length of the diagonal of the trunk we would have to calculate the following formula:

length of the diagonal of the trunk=√(height of the trunk∧2+length of the trunk∧2)

Therefore, length of the diagonal of the trunk=√(26∧2+50∧2)

length of the diagonal of the trunk=√3176

length of the diagonal of the trunk=56.356011

The length of the diagonal of the trunk is 56.356011 inches

At the family reunion there were 15 more family members there this year than at the last family reunion. There were 46 people at
Kipish [7]
The equation would be x+15=46. I came up with this equation because we are given the total number of people at the reunion this year and we know how many more people are here this year than last year. The unknown is the number of people last year. That is why x would represent the number of people at the reunion last year because that is the unknown. If we add 15 to the number of people last year, it will give us 46( the number of people at the reunion this year).
To find x, we just use opposite operation to get the answer. Opposite of addition is subtraction so, we subtract the number of more people and the reunion this year from the total number of people at the reunion to get the unknown number of people at the reunion last year. 46-15 is 31. Therefore we know that 31 people were at the reunion last year
