P=2(L+W)
A=LW


given
P=62
62=2(L+W)
divide 2
31=L+W
minus W
L=31-W

sub into other one
A=LW
A=(31-W)(W)
228=31W-W^2
times -1
W^2-31W=-228
add 228 both sides
W^2-31W+228=0
factor
what 2 numbers multiply to get 228 and add to get -31
-19 and -12
(W-19)(W-12)=0
set to zero

W-19=0
W=19

W-12=0
W=12

sub back

L=31-W
L=31-12
L=19
or
L=31-19
L=12

the doorway is 12in by 19in

A hiker leaves camp and walks 6 miles east. Then he walks 18 miles south. How far from camp is the hiker? Distance in miles: Usi
Mrac [35]

Answer: 19 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, since the situation forms a right triangle (see attachment) we have to apply the Pythagorean Theorem:  

c^2 = a^2 + b^2  

Where c is the hypotenuse of the triangle (in this case the distance between the hiker and the camp) and a and b are the other sides.  

Replacing with the values given:  

x^2 = 6^2 + 18^2  

x^2 = 36+324

x^2 = 360

x = √360

x = 18.97miles = 19 miles

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
