Equation for Perimeter of a rectangle: Perimeter = 2W + 2L
<h3>Defining the variables, let</h3>
<h3>Width = x</h3><h3>Length = 2x+3 (3 more than twice the width)</h3>
<h3>Plugging everything into the equation</h3>
<h3>30= 2(x) + 2(2x+3) using the distributive property,</h3>
<h3>30=2x+4x+6 combining like terms</h3>
<h3>30=6x+6 subtracting 6 from both sides,</h3>
<h3>24=6x divide both sides by 6</h3>
<h3>4=x This means that the width is 4 m.</h3>
<h3>To get the length, use the expression L=2x+3 and plug in x = 4 that was already solved for</h3>
<h3>L=2(4)+3</h3>
<h3>L=8+3 = 11 m</h3>
<h3>So the dimensions of the rectangle are width is 4 m and length is 11 m.</h3>
Answer:
vertex = (- 5, - 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a quadratic in standard form : ax² + bx + c = 0 : a ≠ 0
Then the x- coordinate of the vertex is
= - 
Given x² + 10x = - 17 ( add 17 to both sides )
x² + 10x + 17 = 0 ← in standard form
with a = 1, b = 10, c = 17, then
= - 
= - 5
Substitute x = - 5 into the quadratic for the corresponding value of y
y = (- 5)² + 10(- 5) + 17 = 25 - 50 + 17 = - 8
Hence vertex = (- 5, - 8)
Answer:
"a" must be negative
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope between points (-1, 1) and (1, -1) is a minimum of (-1-1)/(1-(-1)) = -1.
The slope between points (1, -1 and (3, -4) is a maximum of (-4-(-1))/(3-1) = -3/2.
Thus, as x increases, the slope is decreasing. In order for that to be the case, the value of <em>a</em> must satisfy a < 0.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5/3 *2=10/6
10/6-6/6=4/6
If you substitute the -8 in for y you will get -72
You can then add the 72 to the other side and get -8x=64
Dividing by -8 to both sides to get x alone will give you x
X=-8
