Answer:
-2
Step-by-step explanation:
To answer this, just take the negative reciprocal of 1/2. We obtain -2.
1. Let's call:
x: the width of the walkway.
b: 2x+16 (there is a widht "x" of the walkway on each side).
h: 2x+32 (there is a widht "x" of the walkway on each side).
A: 924 ft^2 ( the area of the pool of including the walkway).
2. The area of a rectangle is:
A=(b)(h)
b: the base of the rectangle (2x+16)
a: the height of the rectangle (2x+32)
3. Then, we have a quadratic equation:
924=(2x+16)(2x+32)
4x^2+64x+32x+512-924=0
4x^2+96x-412=0
4. We apply the quadratic formula to find the value of "x":
x=(-b±√(b^2-4ac))/2a
x=3.71
The answer is: The width of the walkway is 3.71 ft
The questions is, when z=9, 3z = ? When you multiply 3*9, you get 27
Answer:
[-1, 3, 9]
Step-by-step explanation:
when x = 2: 4-5 = -1
when x = 4: 8-5 = 3
when x = 7: 14-5 = 9
