Answer:

Part a) The quadratic function is 4x^{2} +20x-39=0

Part b) The value of x is 1.5\ in

Part c) The photo and frame together are 7\ in wide

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a) Write a quadratic function to find the distance from the edge of the photo to the edge of the frame

Let

x----> the distance from the edge of the photo to the edge of the frame

we know that

(6+2x)(4+2x)=63\\24+12x+8x+4x^{2}=63\\ 4x^{2} +20x+24-63=0\\4x^{2} +20x-39=0

Part b) What is the value of x?

Solve the quadratic equation 4x^{2} +20x-39=0

The formula to solve a quadratic equation of the form

ax^{2} +bx+c=0

is equal to

x=\frac{-b(+/-)\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}} {2a}

in this problem

we have

4x^{2} +20x-39=0

so

a=4\\b=20\\c=-39

substitute in the formula

x=\frac{-20(+/-)\sqrt{20^{2}-4(4)(-39)}} {2(4)}

x=\frac{-20(+/-)\sqrt{1,024}} {8}

x=\frac{-20(+/-)32} {8}

x=\frac{-20(+)32} {8}=1.5\ in  -----> the solution

x=\frac{-20(-)32} {8}=-6.5\ in

Part c) How wide are the photo and frame together?

(4+2x)=4+2(1.5)=7\ in

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

Answer:

180 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Like you can see in the picture, I like to set up a proportion, so 81 over X and 45 over 100. Then, you can cross multiply, so 81 x 100 = 8100 and then divide, 8100 ÷ 45 = 180, your answer!

Simplify 4 to the 7th over 5 squared all raised to the 3rd power.
Radda [10]
First write out your original equation.
{(\frac{ {4}^{7} }{ {5}^{2} } ) }^{3}
Then use the law of exponents(power of a power) to simplify.
\frac{ {4}^{21} }{ {5}^{6} }
(Multiply the numerator and denominator exponents by the outside power.)

The answer is 4 to the 21st over 5 to the 6th.
