Let s original sides, l length, w width:

s+8=l

s-3=w

lw= 126in²

substitute:

(s+8)(s-3)=126

s²+5s-24=126

s²+5x-150=0

(s-10)(s+15)

s=10

each side is 10 inches

determine the vertex and axis of symmetry for the following: f(x) = 2x to the power of 2 - 12x + 24 ?
Vikki [24]

Answer:

vertex = (3,24)  Axis of symmetry = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the vertex formula to find x: x=-b/2(a)

x= 12/2(2) = 3 (this is your axis of symmetry)

Substitute 3 for x in the equation to get y: y = 42

Once you have both x and y you have your vertex.
