Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadratic equation is given by x²-24x+c

This is in the form expansion of (a-b)², that is a²-2ab+b²

Comparing

a² = x², a = x

-2ab = -24x

-2xb = -24x

b = 12

c = b² = 12² =144

x²-24x+144 = (x-12)²

Option D is the correct answer

The perimeter of a rectangle can be found using the equation P = 2L + 2W, where P is the perimeter, L is the length, and W is th

Naddik [55]

Answer:

D)Yes. The rectangle can have P = 60 and L = 18 because P = 2(18) + 2(12) would equal 60

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the perimeter of a rectangle is $P=2L+2W$ .

If the width is $W=12\:units$ and the length is $L=18\:units$ , then the perimeter becomes:

$P=2\times 12+2\times 18$ .

$\implies P=24+36$ .

$\implies P=60$ .

Therefore the answer is

D)Yes. The rectangle can have P = 60 and L = 18 because P = 2(18) + 2(12) would equal 60
