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

a father is now 38 years older than his son. Ten years ago he was twice as old as his son. let x represent the age of the son no
Helga [31]

The present age of father is 86 years old and present age of son is 48 years old

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that, a father is now 38 years older than his son

Ten years ago he was twice as old as his son

Let "x" be the age of son now

Therefore, from given,

Father age now = 38 + age of son now

Father age now = 38 + x

<em><u>Ten years ago he was twice as old as his son</u></em>

Age of son ten years ago = age of son now - 10

Age of son ten years ago = x - 10

Age of father ten years ago = 38 + x - 10

Then we get,

Age of father ten years ago = twice the age of son ten years ago

38 + x - 10 = 2(x - 10)

28 + x = 2x - 20

2x - x = 28 + 20

x = 48

Thus son age now is 48 years old

Father age now = x + 38 = 48 + 38 = 86

Thus present age of father is 86 years old and present age of son is 48 years old

Surface Area (SA) of a Cylinder formula:
SA = 2*pi*r*h+2*pi*r^2
If you fill in the formula:
SA = 2*3.14*2*9+2*3.14*2^2
Simplify:
SA = 6.28*18+6.28*4
SA = 113.04 + 25.12
SA = 138.16 in
