Answer:

The dimensions are 24 and 12 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

W + L + W + L = 72   perimeter

(L-12) + L + (L-12) + L = 72

4L - 24 = 72

4L = 72 + 24 = 96  ====>  L = 96%2F4 = 24.

Michael is trying to write the algebraic expression for the following word phrase: the quotient of 6 and the sum of 5 and y? Mic
gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Error: He multiplied 6 by 5 + y instead of divided 6 by 5 + y

Correct solution: 6 ÷ (5 + y)

Step-by-step explanation:

- <em>Lets revise some words of some operations in mathematics</em>

# The sum ⇒ (+) Add

# The difference ⇒ (-) subtract

# The product ⇒ (×) multiply

# The quotient (answer of division) ⇒ (÷) divide

* <em>Lets solve the problem</em>

- Michael is trying to write the algebraic expression for the following

 word phrase:

 the quotient of 6 and the sum of 5 and y

- <u><em>Lets explain that:</em></u> the quotient means the answer of division so he

 wants to divide a quantity by another one

∵ The first quantity is 6

∵ The second quantity is the sum of 5 and y

- He wants to divide 6 by (5 + y)

∴ The expression is 6 ÷ (5 + y)

* Error: He multiplied 6 by 5 + y instead of divided 6 by 5 + y

* Correct solution: 6 ÷ (5 + y)

A building has an entry the shape of a parabolic arch 52ft high and 42ft wide at the base. Find an equation for the parabola if
Lady bird [3.3K]
The description expresses three points which can be used for a standard form equation. The vertex is stated to be (0,0) and is a maximum; two other points are (-21,-74) and (21,-74)
The equation for vertex form of a parabola:
y=a(x-h)^2+k
vertex (h,k)
thus our equation will be:
y=a(x-0)^2+0
thus
y=ax^2
using one of the points, the value of a will be:
-74=a(21)^2
a=-74/441
thus the equation will be:
y=-74/441x²
